In that moment, we celebrated.
I took a selfie photo.
We kissed each other on the lips.
Now, my mom grew up with her being borderline anorexic, and then she became morbidly obese.
And then we got ready and went back to work.
So we went back to Quest.
So you can imagine, as Quest is building and things are getting hard, I'm going back to, I'm doing this for my mom.
That same day, we didn't tell a soul.
The only people we told were my parents and his parents.
I'm doing this for my mom because I want my mom to be healthy.
Now, why?
Because we were so tied to the mission.
I want my mom to live forever in an ideal world, right?
We weren't done.
We hadn't helped obesity on a global scale.
So I'm waking up every day as we're building Quest with that in mind.
It still existed.
My husband comes from a morbidly obese family, so he's got his mom in his head as he's getting up every day.
We didn't help my mom.
She was still struggling with her weight.
