Ah-Ha Moment

My Ah-Ha moment was when my trainer looked me in the eye and said "when are you going to get serious about weight loss".
My weight loss journey began almost 3 years ago at Weight Watchers. I lost 40 pounds over the next few months then stayed there for 2 years. The comment above happened in June. Since then I am down a total of 83 pounds.

When was your Ah-Ha moment?

    When I started using a food scale to weigh my food, I am finally closer to my goal weight. YAY

    When I realized that I had to accurately count everything that went in my mouth.

    I don't know. I think when I tried the app and actually lost some weight. It made me want to stick with it. Then. I had some bad lab tests and I found I really have to be serious about weight/diet/exercise. And the forum advice has helped me make a manageable plan along with advice from outside
