Yet another motivation to lose weight

This week, at the end of a river rafting trip, our transportation out of the canyon was by helicopter. An intimidating old guy was in charge of the loading and had each of us say, loudly over the helicopter noise, our name and weight. He warned us, "if you lie, you die."

If there's a next time, I promise myself there will be a number I will be proud to shout out.

Moral of the story: You never know when your weight will become a public matter.

    This was the reason my husband decided to lose some weight. I'm happy he found something that got him going.
