It does. I was at my gynos office the other day for a first time appointment. We got done with all of the wonderful examination things, and then she said, "Lets talk about your weight hun."
Thinking to myself, " I don't wanna."
She looked at me very seriously, and for the first time in my life someone looked at me and said, "If you don't lose the weight Rhiannon, you are going to die."
SLAP. That was my reality check, and I tear up as I type this. I am embarking on a very long journey in which I have to lose at least 198 lbs. I'm scared. Very scared. South Beach is what my doc wants me to try first, and I am terrified. Any support and encouragment would be most appreciated.
