Day 1 of getting my stuff together (this may be long)

So I have a son about 9 months ago and I gained 40 pounds within 2 months after I quit breastfeeding. (I had my wisdom teeth taken out and I was down for the count for a week and a half and in that time, my husband and I decided from that point forward that we would transition to bottle) Also, in my postpartum depression, I turned to food as comfort. I’m now sitting at a crisp 220 and my goal is 185. I’m 5’8 so it’s a reasonable and appropriate weight to strive for. For the last 3-4 months I’ve been half-assing my weight loss. I ate well for about a day or so then would splurge and then just continue this vicious cycle. And then convince myself that “it’s not that bad.” All at the same time as feeling depressed and unmotivated and unattractive. Anyway, I recently noticed that my husband seems less interested in me. Prior to this weight gain, he was basically unable to keep his hands off me. We had a very healthy sex life and he frequently took pictures of me. However since this weight gain, it’s tapered off and he has stopped taking photos of me. He claims that nothing is different but I can feel it. He’s not attracted to me anymore and it’s killing me inside. So I decided to come on here and post something as a way to hold me accountable and finally do the work necessary. So if you have any tips or tricks let me know.
