What Was Your Wake-Up Call Or "A-Ha Moment" That Caused You To Really Commit Yourself To Succeeding?

At my doctor appointment I learned my weight was 425 lbs and all my blood work was bad and I was told I would be diabetic and could die from a number of things if I didn't change my ways. I just had my son (6 kids in all).

I used to everything that was fried, a lot of salt and tons of meat—every day.

Now plant-based eating is my life.
