in Motivation and Support
Have you ever seen like a friend or acquaintance just all the sudden seem full blown motivated to eat right and exercise? then boom they lost a bunch of weight.
Do you ever think that eventually just gets their moment? And maybe we aren't successful with it until we get to that moment..?

    It happened to me, too - like a bolt of lightening struck me while sitting in a recliner stuffing food in my mouth. I actually said out loud "what are you doing to yourself?!!! You have got to stop eating like this and start moving! If you don't do something about this, you're going to die!" That was 95 pounds ago. I think something really does have to click in your head (your "aha" moment) in order to be successful.

    This is exactly what I'm talking about! I keep feeling like I'm going to have my moment but then I worry it won't ever come.

    I tired to lose weight a millions times and failed. I always quit within the first week. This time is totally different, It's like I fell on my head. (Not literally) And I started exercising and then I quit drinking pop and then I changed my diet and then I quit drinking all sugar drinks. And I try to get in 2 hours of exercise a day. Now I am down 34 pounds in a little over a month.
