My biggest motivation?  I really don't know.  There were so many things.  I was pretty good at being ginormous - 45 years of experience!  But I had also come to realize that I was assuming, and ACCEPTING, that I'd die young!  I mean, before my kidlets grow up and get married young.  That's just so wrong!  And once my PCP made the suggestion, I realized I'd feel like a complete loser - the BAD kind of loser - if I didn't do anything and everything I could to reverse the health issues that were going to kill me.  So I guess my kids have been my #1 motivator.  My love for them, and selfishly wanting as much time with them as the Good Lord will allow me to have! I also figured that it would be kinda cool to get to experience what life might be like on the other side of the tracks - the "I'm NOT the fattest person in the county" side of the tracks!  In my mind, I'm not sure I'll ever be there.  Part of me is - I'm no longer ashamed to walk into my kids' schools, or go grocery shopping, or clothes shopping, or ride rides or anything like that.  But somewhere in my head, I'm STILL the biggest person in whatever place I'm in.  I may never really get over that, because even if I get down to a BMI of 25, I will still BE a big person!  5'11" will never qualify as small, or even MEDIUM, for a woman.  But I'm okay with that. My butterfly does a pretty darn good job of keeping me accountable, too.  NOT PERFECT, but pretty darned good!  I
