Fitness and weight loss journey

So tonight, after scoffing one of my sons gorgeous cakes, I came to the huge realization that the wedding isn't far away and I want a baby soon. Both of these things I didn't want to be fat for. I am a huge hormonal eater. When I say I eat... I mean scoff whatever I can get my hands on.

I have decided this is it! And now because it's down in writing on my blog it must be.... Right? 

I'm setting myself what I think is an achievable goal of 2lbs a week / 8lbs a month. I'm aiming to lose the first 8lb by April 1st. I will blog my eating and would be grateful for any tips.
