Brenda T.
I'm a mom of three grown children. My oldest is 27 boy, 25 year old girl, and 20 year old boy. And my daughter has given me a granddaughter who is a year already.
I have been overweight my whole adult life. It started right after the birth of my first child, even though I only had 10 extra pounds, I thought I was huge and began my first diet. Followed by a series of life long effort, and I feel I have dieted my way up to where I am right now. 246 lbs. I have had relative success with losing weight but no matter how determined or strong willed I was it would always end badly. I have family history of weight issues, my mom has struggled all her life, and my youngest sister is struggling as well. I now have health issues from my weight that took my mom way more years to get to that point that I am now.
