So I have a daughter her name is Fantasia shes 14yrs. old and now lives in Florida with her grandma and is also struggling with her weight. When I hit 305lbs. and became disgusted with myself I thought well maybe if my daughter see's that i can lose weight she will be more inclined to try. Her grandma is a rather small woman so when grandma trys to help her I think maybe she thinks "how would she know she is skinny" So I thought maybe her seeing someone she knows and cares about that is going through the same thing doing then maybe she would try. And I talked to her on the phone yesterday and she saw my Weight loss pictures and told me how amazing I looked and how proud of me she is and just keep going on about how I looked amazing. I felt so happy like maybe I got through to her. And today she called me and asked me how I was losing so much weight, and what I was doing. So I told her you have to eat less, exercise more, and the junk has to go. I explained to her its not easy at all I have cried many times but it is soooo worth it. She said she is going to make it her New Years Resolution to lose weight!!!!!! I Inspired her !!!!! I am so happy that I have done something good in her life !!!!!
