I got this idea from another group but I would like everyone to share their "MOMENT" that made them realize they needed to make changes.

RE: Wake Up Call!
Mine was at a doctor visit when i had to face THE SCALE. I was horrified and said to the nurse "that's not me"...she put her hand on my shoulder and said " yes honey it is". Tears!

Wake up call was when sat in a chair and noticed that my large tummy was reasting on my lap. I was mortifide that I let my self get that big.

RE: Wake Up Call!
My wake up call was waking up this week with shortness of breath and chest pain. Being a nurse I thought the worst. Luckily after going the ER I found out it wasn't anything more than inhaling fumes from cleaners while cleaning house. Thank God. But being overweight and having a family history of heart disease and cancer I realize if I don't change my ways next time I may not be so lucky. Talk about a big motivator.

My wake up call was getting my lab results from a health screen at work this week. My cholesterol was high and my cardiac risk was high. So now I have a new motivator to get healthy.

RE: Wake Up Call!
My wake up call was getting on the scales at my mothers over Christmas. ( I don't own any). I am 4 kg away from my heaviest weight and I was full term pregnant then and 20 years younger.
Time to get healthy

RE: Wake Up Call!
My blood pressure woke me up. Too far up. I have always had very low blood pressure, and I hated the idea of being on another medication. At that same visit, my cholesterol was high. My doctor wants to put me on cholesterol medication. I am terrified of having a stroke. I'm only 38.

My wake up call is that I have a hard time walking now. I have bursitis and tendonitis in my right leg. I want to walk like I am 42 not 75, and I think loosing weight will help me do this.

RE: Wake Up Call!
My wake up was going on a trip this year and finding that NONE of my formal clothes, including sports jackets, fit any longer. Then on the trip itself, we found ourselves in the lobby of a spa and I jumped on the cool looking electronic scale only to find I had balooned up to 213 lbs... IMPOSSIBLE AND DEPRESSING! Thanks for the topic --- new member here, first post. JH

RE: Wake Up Call!
My wake up call was when I realized I was afraid to leave the house because I live in an apartment up three flights of stairs. Coming home is/was always a struggle because I have two babies and it is so hard to just get up the stairs with them.
