My whole family is overweight. I'm the least overweight. My mom is always making and buying junk food. What can I do to help out and stop my cravings?
Also, what can I do to persuade my mother to lose weight? She refuses to look at the scale. She always eats before she goes to bed, and she usually has a lot of toast for breakfast. For lunch today, I saw she was taking 2 bottles of diet pepsi, 2 apples, an orange, and some grapes. That is WAy too much for lunch! If I had to guess, my mother is at least 300lbs, my dad at least 250, my one sister is at least 190, and my other sister is 190. I am 145 currently and wanting to get to 130 for life. What can I do to help change my enviornment? Also, my mom buys a lot of artificial sweetners. Should I just throw the ones out that I bought b/c I read the bad stuff about them? I'm off of artificial sweetners, and maybe that's why I gained 5lbs?
Help!
