    Jen, your story makes me think that I need to make my exercise a priority. 1 hour a day is not too much to ask of ones self. I'm always running and have tons of responsibilities but you are right. I should be responsible to myself as well. Thanks for putting your story into words. The impact they are having is huge. I love the bad *kitten* picture. You look awesome but, I really like your smiling pictures too.

    Congrats!!! You look amazing!!! Thank you so much for your post.....I too struggle with taking time for myself and making myself a priority. In the last 9 months I've gained back all I lost because of family medical issues that made me put others before myself and not taking that 'me' time to care about me. Thank you for helping me to see that I need to make me a priority!!

    Keep it up...you are doing great!!

    Outstanding!!!

    One thought popped into my head. You should hunt down that night nurse and thank her for pissing you off! I think it's good to let the people who motivated you know that they motivated you.

    Every so often someone I know will tell me that I motivate them and it makes me feel great. Weird in a a way, but great!

    You are a bad azz!! I love this story and you too. Yes some can be pretty mean and hateful in the hospitals, I've been there with that. But I just keep my mouth shut, because there are so many who are like angels to me. I am going to share your story with a friend, we just finished talking about something similar on facebook, she is developing health issues because of her weight. Thank you so much - and rock on!

    I love, love, love this post! I think you and I have both learned that no matter how bad others want you to change OR how much you want to change others, it is really an internal trigger that kicks off a success story like yours. I am glad your trigger came before it was too late.

    I am excited for you that you are making these changes and feeling the results of your efforts. I am so happy that I've met you and, btw, I love listening to you yapping at me in the mornings! It keeps me renewed in my daily efforts as well!
