The letter should contain information about your attempts through the years to lose weight. The diets you've been on, how much you lost, for how long, how much you regained. Sheesh, I even had accupunture for weight loss. It was a joke--didn't even go back for a second session.
You should also explain family history of obesity and family history of diabetes, high blood pressure, ect.
I'm sure there will be more suggestions from others--these are just off the top of my head.
