After having my children, I have struggled with my weight. b My mom
has always struggled with hers as well. b I have a family history of
diabetes as well. I have found with attempting to lose weight that it is
important to have someone to be accountable to. I have had to
change my behavior in the fact that I need the support of others and
that I can't do it on my own. I now have a weight loss coach who
messages me three times a week and is there if I am having any
issues. Weight loss is hard. I have had to also put mind over matter. I
have to tell myself every morning when I wake up that I can do this,
that it is important to me. b I need to keep my weight under control to
help prevent the onset of type 2 diabetes.
