Question Question For Everyone!

My question to you all is....when did you decide that you were going to lose the weight? Did you have a "rock bottom" moment? Was it a photo? a rude comment?

I decided I needed to lose the weight when I went on vacation to Mexico a few months ago...I felt so uncomfortable in my bathing suit and horrible looking at myself in the summer outfits...I knew I needed to do something before summer because I would be miserable if I didnt. Hope to hear from you!

I realized I had a "Yut" and that I was trying to hide it with a girdle. I realized that if I lost weight I wouldnt have to hide it anymore because it wouldnt be there. That was my "rock bottom" moment

SHOCKED at how quickly I put on weight on a break from Weight Watchers - added pounds every week when I was eating normally - scary - something has to change.... AND I promised myself I will be able to sleeveless tops this summer.

I guess the reason I decided to get serious is because I am tried of not being able to go for a run, feeling very unattractive, high cholestrol and getting weighrd in at the Dr.s' office.

I actually also started this thread in the weight loss support forum. Sorry about that! Seems like that one is going a bit stronger!
