Thanks so much again, I guess I never realized so many had to deal with the same things...it does feel bad to dread going on trips or taking your kids out to amusement parks, much less water parks...Some have messaged me and asked when I said enough is a enough...well, back on February 25th of this year, I was to attend a gala event with my daughter. The night before, to ensure I had the proper attire, I ended up buying a freaking super expensive suit, pretty much the largest suit and pants in Men's Warehouse that night (pictures of this night are on my profile if you care to see)...that should have gotten my attention but it didn’t. The embarrassment didn't come until a family friend of ours videotaped me in the event walking my 5 y/o daughter down the red carpet and posted it to my facebook account. All everyone else saw (or commented on) was me walking my baby girl and how nice I looked in my suit, but for me all I could see was myself actually waddling instead of walking down the red carpet…that’s what it took to wake me up...seeing a live action video of myself in action, and it was embarrassing! I still look at that video from time to time to remind myself how bad off I was, luckily "for me" it wasn’t an issue with my health that led me down this path, that isn’t always the case…to this day I will never forget 2/27/2012, the day I REALLY saw myself and decided to make this change.

Again thanks so much for the outpouring of love and motivation!! I don't plan on quitting until I finish this race and I still have a loooooong way to go!
