It was a late summer afternoon, but instead of being outside enjoying the day, I was sitting at the doctor's office waiting for my lab results. I had been feeling "off" and I didn't understand what was going on. The doctor walked in and she informed me my sugar levels were high and I was in the pre-diabetic stage. "If you continue down this path, in 5 years or less, you will be a full-blown diabetic" she warned me. I panicked. I had no idea what to do or how to do it. But I knew something had to change. The unhealthy lifestyle I was living had to come to an end.
That is the day I decided to love myself.
