what a wonderful post! I can relate to this as well. My boyfriend and I have been together for 4 years and he tells me all the time that I'm happier now and how good I look. My self confidence has really been soaring and it makes for a better relationship!!

awww this is a great post to read. i am an old fashion kind of girl. these are the posts i love to read. you know that is so sweet. and you are a lucky lady in so many ways. that is what this journey is all about. feeling good, loving ourselves, not hiding anymore. congrats.

What a great NCV!!! My husband does this too. I am not yet banded and I feel fat and gross and I don't want to do anything when he comes up behind me and kises my neck. I can not wait to feel sexier!! Keep up the great work!!

I love your post! Brought tears to my eyes. In part for happiness for you! Also in part, for mourning what we can lose from being overweight. I know I've lost so many things over the years because of my weight and the effect it had on my self confidence. I am looking forward to getting that back more than anything. Go YOU!!

Awe so sweet love it!!! So happy for you and yep I am so with you that the weight really does play a part in my love life too its like gosh how in the world does my hubby find me sexy but he does and now I am down 26 lbs gosh i even feel a little sexier too its a great feeling! Keep up the great work and great job to your hubby too for all the support thats so awesome and really needed! Good for you!

Awe! He's a keeper.
