Hi everyone :-)! My name is Jess, a 28 year old living in Philly. I've be married for eight years to my wonderful husband Martin! Joined the site mostly because I've been struggling with my weight since being married. I love him, but you know how it is... "Honey, try this!" Or he tries to be thoughtful and bring chocolate back home with him. I swear in our first two years, all we did was dine out. Yes, he has a lot of meat on his bones too!

I have fertility issues other than my obesity. The last thing you think about in your early twenties is (in)fertility, you know? I thought of either of us, it would be more on his side (he's older than I am). But we talked about adoption before we were even engaged (in addition to any children we had), so we'll do just that :-) It hurt for a long time to not have any of our own biological ones. But I think G-d planned this all along. I have an amazing gift with kids, and maybe this is how I'm supposed to experience motherhood. And my husband is pretty great with kids too, so I guess this was his path all along as well!

Just a bit of info- LOVE dancing and music (obsessed with Zumba!), movies, video games, hanging out, taking care of kids, etc.
