[QUOTE="SunnyExpat, post: 936941, member: 200461"] Its me, but quite often I see 'excuses' for many things. I was overweight. Maybe it was a reason, maybe it wasn't, for diabetes. Maybe it was my lifestyle, which was a lot of grabbed meals, a lot of work, a lot of missed meals, a lot of eating in the evening, after a day of no food at all. But, it's something I can take, and use, to say, 'enough'. I have a plan, and I follow it. But it comes down to the acceptance I put myself here, so I can get myself out. It wasn't fate, it wasn't genetics, it wasn't anything but me. And that empowers me to fix it. It's not been easy, but it was worthwhile. And like the quote I (facetiously) referred to, I will stand up and say that was me, do your worst. But, until the reckoning, I'm going to be enjoying it. [/QUOTE]
