Me and my sister were always overweight. Except when she entered high school she had difficulty making friends b/c of the weight, and people picked and made fun of her. She could not help the weight b/c the doctor had placed her on medications containing steroids since she had been 10 yrs. old for the treatment of Epilepsy. I remember fighting for my sister everyday to defend her honor, to protect her from the ugliness in the world. The comments hurt me very much so I imagine how they made her feel. We're much older now and both of us are battlling to save our lives to recover from what being overweight has done to our bodies and reclaim our health as much as possible. She started out 380 lbs., she is now 276. She is my inspiration. When I think about the team and my sister I have no choice but to be successful at this weight loss attempt.
