Summary
Dr. Phil speaks to two women who illustrate the importance of the Make America Healthy Again initiative, and the problems with diet and nutrition in our country. Both women say they came from poverty-stricken families and have never had healthy relationships with food- one woman has been diagnosed as obese since she was in elementary school, the other has a severe case of type 2 diabetes that she developed at age 25. Both of their children also suffer from chronic illness- and they live together as roommates. They've both been on a weight-loss journey in the past year and want advice and guidance on how to help themselves and their children.
