You want motivation?

Lack of motivation isn't a problem for me. Determination is simply second nature now. Yesterday, I faced a reality few parents will experience. My eldest son, age 32, lost both legs due to complications of diabetes. He lived through a hell of neuropathic pain for over five years but finally lost the battle. He is very overweight and must take control of the disease before it progressively takes his life away, one limb or organ at a time. For you folks with loved ones who are obese or greater, please take heed. Lead by example and help them to a healthier life. Please.
