Wow! Mama L’s guest post from her hubby sure got me thinking today! How my husband must feel as I am on this weight loss journey. How despite my weight gain he still tells me he loves me just the way I am and still shows me love. I wonder if he ever wishes I looked like was the girl he met almost 12 years ago. Of course he does! He has insecurities about me “leaving him” when I get “skinny” as he says. Of course I would never! I cannot even imagine what I look like “skinny”. In my eyes I have never been and will probably never be thin. Even if I get to my goal weight of 150 lbs. I will still be a curvy girl and that’s ok with me. As long as I get there and get healthy for my little girls.
I always tell my hubby that when I do get to my goal he is going to like LOVE it, he just doesn’t know it yet. I tell him how much more flexible I’ll be and how much more comfortable in the bedroom. Don’t get me wrong we have an awesome “bedroom” life and always have. That is one thing that is very strong in our relationship. I couldn’t imagine it getting much better but I know that if I am that much more comfortable with myself that it can.
The post really gave me even more motivation to find my inner skinny bitch and release her. Not only for me but for my hubby and all the good things that come with being happy, healthy, and fit. That being said it is going to take a lot of work, dedication, and determination. I am up for the challenge and I know it will not come overnight or even in a few weeks, or months. It will take time, effort and patience. I am glad to have my hubby by my side to support me no matter what.
Have a happy Thursday hookers!!
