My suggestion, if it feels right for you, is to tell your husband that his comment about hoping you don't get that skinny kinda worried you. It might help to talk about it. Maybe he's worried if you are too skinny, you'll leave him. Maybe he just has a preference for fleshier women (my fiance likes blondes, he'd hate it if I let my hair go back to it's natural brown). Maybe he's worried if you focus too much on weight loss, you won't have time for him. If you ask him why he said that, it might help a lot. If you know what was behind the comment, you might be able to reassure him and yourself. It's important to have support from our loved ones as we try to get healthy & fit. If you are worried in the back of your head that he doesn't approve, it could sabotage you. If you can, try to talk to him about it. It will probably turn out to be something trivial, you'll feel relieved and be able to return to this with a clear focus.
