Cyn...it is funny that you say that you were at peace when you made the decision to change your life. I feel the exact same - it was just MY time. I have always put my husband and children ahead of myself and I have come to realize that they are happier when I am a happy person. I have changed my life for the better in so many ways...my first step was to care for myself. I am so much happier now that I have lost almost 50 lbs and that I know that I have the willpower to say no to junk food and sitting on my butt all day and yes to healthy foods and exercise. I have changed the way my entire family eats, too...the kids are eating healthier - they make better choices, too. I am very proud to say that my children are very active in sports and I am able to participate with them instead of just watch them from the sidelines. My husband is extremely proud of me, too - my children are my number one fans though. They cheer me on as I lose each pound...it is so cute!

Good ? - I enjoyed answering it.
