Hi all thought I would introduce myself and share my pics of my constant battle with weight. Im 29 and have always struggled with my weight. Im actually very active, box and go gym 4 nights a week. Despite all my efforts to train hard I just cant control my eating habits, ill diet a day and eat crap for 2. This has been a battle for years making me extremely miserable at times. I weighed the most I ever have in 2010 when I was approx. 25st, I did a milkshake diet for about 6 months and was down to 16.7 and was relatively happy with my physique, apart from a huge apron of fat around my belly. I decided I would pay and get a tummy tuck done so I would be finally happy the way I looked. I was wrong. After the TT I was having personal issues and went back to comfort eating and put on 3 stone again :cry:. Since this I have struggled to diet and lose any weight and am now 19.7 stone and unhappy again. I have been seeing a psychologist to help me find the root cause of my problems and all is going well. I have decided to take control and am getting a gastric wrap in 8 days, I want to re educate myself and reprogram my brain to eat the right things at the right time, I want to lose the weight that's been dragging me down and making me feel down in the dumps, will keep you all posted how I go. p.s don't laugh at the pics

Hi and welcome

Hello, good luck see you on the loosers bench. x

Hi Jamie, good luck with the wrap. I will follow your journey with interest, as it's a procedure I've not heard much about. I know it involves folding in the stomach, and I wonder how it differs in results from the sleeve.

You will be a 'slim Jim' in no time, I'm sure

no-one will laugh at your pics - but I relate to that feeling in posting them as I felt that way before I posted mine!

It sounds as if you're on the right track, and getting help along the way!

Welcome Jamie, good luck with your surgery and beyond
