I'm just now getting caught up from taking a week off reading blogs. UGH! :) I admit - I save my favorites for last, so you should be flattered that I saved yours 'til later. :) Anyway, my turning point was realizing that my food intake was completely out of control. It was running my life and I figured that that was no kind of life for anyone - even me. So I decided to join either Weight Watchers or Overeaters Anonymous. Since the day that I decided that was a Monday - I looked at both meeting times...and WW had one that was right after work. During my journey, I've realized that there isn't one pat answer to my decision to be healthier and some days I struggle more than others. But most days I feel more in control of my eating and that is a huge win for me. Congrats on your weight loss, girl! You are doing great. Hey Kellie!

I know how hard it is to get there and it took me months of soul searching before I was able to "I'm ready and I'm gonna do this". You have a great attitude. Keep on going!

I too felt like I was standing on the sidelines of life - it was not a good place to be. Congratulations on your weight loss this week, and also congratulations on all you have accomplished, both physically, emotionally, and spiritually. What a great, positive post.

Looks like you are doing GREAT! I am on the same journey. So far I am down about 60 pounds. I clearly remember my turning point. It was brought on by months of bad experiences, and then I suddenly realized my weight was damaging my relationship with my husband. I wasn't who I wanted to be, I couldn't talk to him. (my fault, not his) I didn't like my relationship with myself either. Good luck, and keep up the good work. :) I just found your blog. Looks like you are doing GREAT! I am on the same journey.

It sounds like you are in a great head space right now :). I'm not 100% sure what my turning point was for losing weight. I have tried (and sometimes partially succeeded) a number of times with this weight loss thing. This time I have just managed to stick with it to the point where I am seeing significant positive changes and I am so grateful for that. Congratulations on your progress!
