What was you breaking point? Tell me.....

I personally had a few points of breaking. You know what they are. When you scream out ENOUGH!! Im tired of this S*&%!!! Im going to lose weight. Maybe before even considering surgery.

Sad to say Ive had more than a few...One I will never forget was when I planned the Costa Rican side of my families first reunion. People Id never met before. I was so excited and we had over 500 family members in attendance. We where at the Saturday night party and a cousin of mine was taping the event. I was holding my then 1year old son and decieded to sit down because he was getting heavy and It was about 200 degrees. I sat on a plastic chair and the next thing I knew my son and I where on the floor from the legs of the chair actually melting underneath the weight. Some people laughed, a couple came to help and my cousin caught it all on tape. I ran to my beach front cabin and never came back out that night...I wouldnt eat or anything. That was one of my many breaking points, because it still took years for me to admit that I needed help with my fight.

What was your breaking point?

My breaking point became last year when I had even less and less energy to do anything.All I wanted to do was stay in the house and sleep.My man would ask me to go out and I did not even want to do that.When you are overweight you do not have the energy to do anything.H*** it is a task just to bathe yourself! Now you know then that it has gone to far ! And gurl do not get me started on those plastic chairs.I have a patio and all that they are out there for are decoration because I sure as H*** can't sit in them!

When I was all of 26 and having issues with my knees and feet from being so heavy. And then I saw my engagement photo proofs (black and white on profile). There was some full bodies that were not EVEN cute. I was DISGUSTED! Fortunately by then I already had my surgery date anyway.

At least your chair was plastic. Try a wood dining room chair. Now I must say that the legs were getting lose, but it was still my 395 lb butt that made it give up under so much pressure. Also when I had to figure out a way to wipe my butt (tmi) because I was so big and was completely out of breath once I was able to get it done.  I've got to get the rest of this weight off!!!
WHEN LIFE KNOCKS YOU DOWN TO YOUR knees, JUST REMEMBER THAT YOU ARE IN THE PERFECT POSITION TO PRAY. HW 395, RNY 4/2/07 345, Lowest Weight 248,  Revision to Distal RNY 1/13/09 278,Revision to DS 10/15/10

My breaking point was when my son ran out in the street and almost got hit by a car.  I was too fat and slow to beat a 2yr old running down a driveway.  That day changed my whole perspective on life.
