Welcome to our blog!  We are Steve and Cece, and we have been happily married for 12 years and have four beautiful and wonderful children (and an awesome dog).

When we began our relationship in 1995, Steve weighed 235 and Cece weighed 195, and we thought we looked pretty good at the time.  We were obviously younger and healthier then.  Since our wedding in 1996, we have done everything together, had children, built a life and a business, quit smoking, and got fat(ter).  We have gained a whopping 300 pounds combined.  That a lot of love!  A lot too much actually!! 

We are both 44 years old and tired of feeling tired, out of shape and sickeningly full.  We want to be able to romp around with our children, run in the park with our dog, and be able to live life in general without it being a huge, physically tasking chore.  We have both dieted since we’ve been a couple, but never together. 

Since we’re both so excited about this process, we decided to create a blog to track our journey.  Every day, we will each post the date and our current weight and pounds lost in the title line of each of our “About” pages, and you will be able to see it along the left-hand side of the home page.  

We hope that you all find this blog inspirational and if nothing else, it helps you to realize that you are not alone in your despair.  And hopefully you’ll decide to come along with us on our adventure!   

We hope you enjoy the ride!
