  2. It is rare to find someone who "regrets" weight loss - regardless of their circumstances. If you have always been overweight I understand your fear of the unknown. However, I think you will find happiness in the new you for many reasons: You will be healthier and feel lighter and have more energy. Your clothes will fit/look better. You will feel good about finally doing something for YOU. Your husband married you because he loves YOU not just your body (or at least I hope that is true) so he will be attracted to the person you become regardless of the changes in your body. It will be an adjustment - I don't know how much you have to lose - but I hope you and him will talk as you change and that he is supporitive of your decision. To answer your question these are totally normal feelings, yes. Good luck and stay positive. Your life is about to change for the better!
