Update

Well here is a little update about my family & me.

We are all doing pretty great! Elijah has been working a lot! He works a lot of overtime right now, so that we can afford to send Ethan to his private therapies. It's been hard, but it's what we have to do right now.
We have booked a vacation for November, to celebrate Ethan's 3rd birthday & our 5th anniversary. We are going to Sea World San Diego & Disney Land! (where we went for our Honeymoon!)

I have been working on losing weight, and have lost about 18 lbs. 11 lbs in the last 3 weeks.
This last week I started a goal, which is to lose 2 lbs a week for 37 weeks, until we go on our trip.
That would be 74 lbs by the time we leave for Sea World & Disney Land. And that would be awesome!

I have been feeling so motivated, and then having this goal & reward helps a lot.
I've been doing pretty great for the last month. I still struggle, but my sister (who has lost 65 lbs doing the same thing) and my mother, have been great supporters and my Hubby (who can eat whatever he wants and doesn't gain a lb) has been so great about it all. He's supported me in everything I've done.

Although he loves me, no matter what weight I'm at, he knows that losing weight would help me so much, and it'd be a bonus for him. :) He helps push me when I need it (although I sometimes get mad at him for it) and he makes me feel good about myself all the time. I've never dated a guy before Eli that has really made me feel good about myself and excepted me for who I am. Elijah is such an amazing man, and he loves me for everything I am. He tells me I am beautiful, even when I don't feel that way. I don't know how I got so lucky!

I took pictures of myself at about 15 lbs weight loss (i forgot to take before pictures) and I plan on taking them again when I lose 15 more lbs. We'll see if I ever get the courage to post them on here. But I want to have pictures so that I can see myself changing.
I know that I have posted before about weight loss, but I was never this motivated, nor did I have the proper support. I have joined a group online, about emotional eating, and how to overcome it. because that is my major problem. I eat poorly when I am stressed, depressed, or angry, and I am learning how to get past all that. Wish me luck! ;)
