In Honor Of Ruby...



I don't know if any of you have seen this show on Style tv yet, but it is amazing. It is about a woman named Ruby and her struggle to lose weight. When the show starts she weighs 477 lbs. The love of her life left her because he could not deal with her weight issues and she can no longer work. They follow Ruby through her everyday struggles and temptations.

As a person that has struggled with my weight my whole life, I can really relate to Ruby. They show people making fun of her or looking at her as she walks past them, it just breaks your heart.

On the show, four months have passed and Ruby has now lost 60 lbs. So in honor of Ruby's great accomplishment, I myself will be dragging my rump out of bed every morning 30 minutes earlier to do some sort of exercise. Yep, starting tomorrow I will be up at 5:30am and will be doing something at least.

If you have a chance try to catch Ruby's show. It is on a 5am Sunday mornings. No, I am not up that early, I have to set the Tivo but the show is so inspiring you must watch! So go home tonight, find the Style tv channel and set up the Tivo to record every episode.
