I have always had a weight problem, but never have I weighed heavier than I do now. I am 46yo,5'6, and 255pounds. Only 5 years ago I weighed 185 pounds, Back then I thought that I was sooooo fat. Still overweight but not as shocking as I am now. So far my health is excellent, but I am becoming increasingly concerned re. obesity related illnesses and death. My dad died at 51 from a stroke and my aunty has recently become an insulin dependant diabetic. I know exactly how to lose weight healthily as I have done it before but this time I just don't seem to be able to last longer than a day. I have never written on a message board or been part of a chat room before, here's hoping I reach someone and better still I'm hoping that someone or something can reach me.
