Family History

    Family History- How it effects who we are.

I can say this because I have spent the last year in a christian based 12 step program working on life issues. I use to think family history just meant medical problems you inherited from you parents. I now know you get a lot of things that are passed on threw the generations not just your physical ailments. OK! Let me explain myself.

   Grandparents- both sets of grandparents where not social people mostly stuck to their home 2 of them died of heart problems and diabetic.

  Fathers side of family has issues with diabetes and my mother has it as well.
  
  Siblings one is diabetic and other has heart problems.

  Family time was generally focused around food and any large gatherings where with immediate family and hardly in voled friends outside that family. Most of our immediate family has struggled with their weight. So if you add that and DNA factors into the mix along with having an addictive personality. I can see where I have fallen into a life where food has been a comforting thing for me hiding behind my weight and living a life of denial. A life of insanity, which I will explain in a later blog.
