Technically it is about dieting, but it's more about never giving up.

A grandmother has finally reached her ideal weight at the age of 77 - after a diet lasting 50 years.
Brenda Boxall started slimming in her late 20s after her weight ballooned to 20 stone.
She vowed to shed the pounds after seeing a picture of herself in the early 1960s and thinking she looked like a 'big blob'.
Now, after more than half a century of dieting and exercising, she has finally shifted the excess fat and is now her target weight of 9st 9lbs.
Over 50 years she has also shrunk from a dress size 30 to just a size 10.

I think I would be most frustrated if it took me 50 years to reach my ideal weight but like the tortoise...at least she got there in the end!
