I just had a conversation with my husband, and he confided that he would like me to lose some weight. And no, he’s not an awful shallow person – we were talking about areas in our lives we could each improve on, and we asked eachother to be honest.
And I’m not suprised at all. When we got together, I weighed about 200lb, and right now I weigh 255. We’ve been married about 8 months, and that weight gain was all within the last year. I’m 5’5. I honestly know I need to lose weight, and I have tried several times. My husband tells me all the time that I am beautiful, and sexy, and that I turn him on. He is very affectionate, and I never feel like he judges me for my body – he loves me for me, I have no doubts.
A few weeks ago, I weighed 260, and I was able to lose 5lb by eating healthier and going on hikes. But somehow my will power just disappeared. I still walk and play with my dog in the park, but the eating has gotten out of control again. Food has always ruled my life, and I have always been heavy. I use food for comfort, boredom, fustration, and hunger.
Please don’t tell me it’s just a matter of will power – I already know this. My problem is.. it’s easier said than done.
I love my husband, and we want to make our life together long, happy, and healthy. Please don’t put him down for being honest with me – I told him theres some things he needs to work on also. I am willing to do anything I can to make him happy, and to make myself happy. Just like a mom would steal food for her starving kids… a fat wife should be willing to lose a few for her handsome, sexy hubby.
He’s 5’11 and weighs about 195. Very muscley and …Rawr! 
Our sex life isn’t hurting any, believe me – this isn’t about looks. He said he wants me to lose weight so I would be happier with myself. I do have issues with how I look, and I pull the "Im so fat!" card more than I should. So he has a point.
Anyhow… what are your success stories? Has any BBW in my situation found a method that worked for her?
