Your "That's IT - I'm losing weight!" moment?

So what is it? Was it a nasty comment someone made or you overhead? Was it splitting your "fat" pants? Stepping on the scale and passing out from the shock? What was the turning point moment for you?

For me, it was a combination of things 3 days right in a row. I had a friend come visit for a long weekend - her first night here, we went out, and I swear to God I'm not joking, I split the pants I put on to wear out. Thankfully it was before we left but it was humiliating all the same. Then, going to the mall with this friend who has always been the same size as me, (or I had actually been smaller!), and I was miserable walking around that day not wanting to try anything on because I knew my regular sizes wouldn't fit and I'd look awful, while she looked great in everything she put on. I also had worn a rather unflattering shirt that is actually too small for me now (didn't know we'd end up at the mall when I got dressed), and a group of teen boys walked by and made snorting noises. Yes, actually, I did look like a stuffed pig.

I signed up here at PT the next day.

So what's all of your defining moments?
