My realization moment came just this moment. I am on WW but have never thought about it in the aspect that you have and I am really struggling this week with stress related eating. This has made me change my attitude. Thank you for this! Lauren Wow! My realization moment came just this moment.

Strike #1 was the first EKG I ever had to have, realizing if gained forty pounds in two months, and going on heart medication. I wish that had been my wake-up call, but it did make me realize I was killing myself. Strike #2 came in April when I had to have an emergency appendectomy, and how many people it took to move me from the gurney to the table. Strike #3 was a combination if factors including my impending 30th birthday. I finally admitted I had a problem after my three strikes, that if I continued down that road I was going to die. My husband would be left alone, I wouldn't be there for my parents as they got older, and all myhopes and aspirations would never be achieved because I couldn't see what was blazingly clear. Yes, it's nice to fit in a smaller size, but it's even better to tale a flight of stairs without huffing puffing. What a great post!!

Yes, it’s nice to fit in a smaller size, but it’s even better to tale a flight of stairs without huffing puffing.

What a great post!!

I told my husband the other day, that I could seriously sleep all day, and all night! I realized it was more about my weight, when my doctor told me if I wanted to get pregnant, I had to lose weight! I realized that my weight was holding me back, causing health problems, and could potentially prevent my dreams from coming true. I got my butt on a diet after that little light bulb moment! ;) Gosh, that’s how I feel! I told my husband the other day, that I could seriously sleep all day, and all night!

I sent Jack Sh*t some pictures and he will most likely post them this afternoon. Basically I took pics of my pills, my insulin and syringes and my CPAP machine and wrote on note cards that I don't want to do these anymore. It was humbling but if I can save one person from having to deal with it then it was worth it. We are on the same page.
