    My breaking point was when I weight 252lb and at the time my father didn't weight as much as that. Granted he had been in the hospital but still. I weighed more than the "big man". It's taken me several years and i'm still not at my goal but i'm losing weight.

    After my dad passed in june i at like a pig and gained weight but then realized I didn't have to end up like him. I've started working out 5-6 days a week. I never thought i'd say that. I've completed a round of Insanity, ran a 5k. I'm on a Insanity/running hybrid right now.

    Breaking points do Make you :brokenheart: :ohwell: or Break you for sure. Even though Im trying to put on weight. My favorite Aunt brought her concerns to me as well and I saw a picture of myself from that night on FB. She was right (at a wedding). When someone in the family has a little talk with you, that's alway eye opening! great topic.:heart:

    The turning point was when my mom said I was built more like a man....Up until my mid 30s I was a 38-28-36. But I was the tallest in my family and had always held 'men' oriented work. Cabinet maker, window shop foreman, field GPS surveyor on highway projects...yea pretty non-traditional..and I put up with alot of flak..The feminist in me. My mom all 4'10 wasn't being mean - she just knew I had always been strong - now I'm working my way back! Yea!
