Just started reading your journal. Thanks for stopping by mine. Oh, Happy Birthday!
I also just realized that you were in WDW when we were.
Anyway, I am just past the part where you tell a little about yourself, it may take me awhile to catch up to the rest, but wanted to let you know that you are not alone. Your story is similar to mine. Skinny throughout high school and a few time in adulthood, but most of my weight gains have come from pregnancies. I was just one of the unlucky ones that alway gained TONS of weight, with the exception of the last pregnancy (that's good as I was already overweight). I have 4 children. DD17 (almost 18), DD15, DD7 & DS (he's 2). Also, I am 5' 6.5" (although always recorded as 5'7") and would love to get back to 135. I believe that I can lead a healthy life there, but have set my goal for 150 as a maximum. After that I can work on the last few lbs.
It is really great that your DH is supportive in the lifestyle change that you are making for yourselves. My DH is supportive of me (wish he did more for himself) and it makes a huge difference. You will really love it here. I have lost 24 lbs in 3 months and it is all because of the support that I get here. It is wonderful to have people around who know exactly how you feel and what you are going through.
Hang in there, you are going to do great!
