About Us

These Real Women Have Cuurves. And are PROUD of it!


Jessica

I'm Jessica Lucas, a simple girl from a small town in Virginia. I'm married to a country boy named Tim and I have a cat named Karma who has been my little sidekick since I was 15. I enjoy reading, photography, good movies and good music. I was an Art major in college and lately I've been trying to find some inspiration to create art again. I've also been trying to channel my inner Julia Child and learn to be a better cook (and to learn to actually ENJOY cooking). I often describe myself as eccentric, quirky and an all-around dork. Ask my friends and they'll likely agree. I'm sarcastic and random but I have a big passion for life and I love my family and friends dearly! One of my other great passions in life is traveling, especially traveling with friends. I work for a computer software company, which I absolutely LOVE, but sitting in front of a computer all day has caused the pounds to creep up on my fast, which I HATE. Thus, here we are. My sis and I are on a mission to lose some pounds with the support of each other and our readers.


Sarah


I'm Sarah Gravely, a southern gal from Nashville TN. I just married the love of my life, Matthew, on January 16, 2010. He is a soldier getting ready to deploy this summer. I love reading, scrapbooking, photography, blogging, movies, etc. I am obsessed with finding all kinds of new recipes to try for me & my hubby. I am very close with my family, but they are absolutely amazing so that's no surprise! I have the absolute best friends anyone could ever ask for! I am a stay at home wife. I am an entrepreneur. I am an artist. I am a singer. I am many things.

I was recently diagnosed with PCOS - Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. Polycystic ovary disease is a condition in which there are many small cysts in the ovaries, which can affect a woman's ability to get pregnant. It also has many symptoms including weight gain, diabetes, increased hair growth, infertility, etc. This explains a lot of the health problems I have been enduring over the last few years. But it is also very scary and emotional. My goal is to lose weight to be healthier. So that I can live a long and happy life.
