    July 1st when my long term boyfriend broke up with me! It was a great motivator at first but now I'm doing it for me :)

    Two things:

    1) I went to a Giants football game in December and barely fit into my seat.

    2) My knees started to hurt. I'm too young to be thinking about knee replacements. I want to be able to move and enjoy life.

    I decided to lose the weight…..

    When I really took a GOOD look around the office and turned back and looked at myself. I decided not to be in the fat boat with the other women in the office. They tend to be very upset with me when I don’t participate in staff retreats when they have a large display of junk food to eat. I usually eat a snack before the meeting just so I can say” no thank”… I feel there is no reason for me to be 4’11 and as big as they are along with the list of health problems they have. …. I’m just over 35lb’s overweight and getting any bigger is NOT an option.

    Learning to put myself first was the biggest obstacle. :flowerforyou: :blushing:
