Well hy to you all I hope everyone is doing well , I will begin with my story which started August 2010 when I got stuck in a chair in a cafe and I heard the familiar sound of laughing I felt totally deflated and run as fast as I could once I freed myself , once outside my grandson asked me why were they laughing at you nan? How could I tell him it's because I'm to fat and got stuck in the chair , so I brushed it off once I got home I just sat and cried then I sat on my computer and looked up weight loss surgery watched the videos for over a week then decided I need to do this now or I'll be dead by the time I reach 60 if I keep getting bigger and believe me I was .Anyway I made an appointment to see the surgeon and was shocked at my weight I was very nearly 19 st and I'm only 5'2" so the strain on my heart alone was a lot not only that my legs were always swollen and in the heat I suffered with blisters as my legs would chaff together , my breasts underneath would be all red and sore even my bum would crack and bleed not pleasant at all so let my journey begin .
It was 13th October 10 when I was reborn , I had my surgery felt sore after but been through worse, after an overnight stay I was allowed home back on the liquid diet for 2weeks then ate small amounts I think I got my first fill after 6weeks then it started,nothing to do with the band it was me still trying to eat what I used to so it was down the toilet I used to visit Hughy regular till I realised what I was doing wrong that was my learning curb as I like to call it don't get me wrong I still have the odd visit when I get a bit greedy lol, well by April I had lost 4st 5 lb had to by new clothes as mine were like tents varied from 22/24 24/26 and here I was now an 18 great I thought then the weight just kept coming off it's now November and my new size is 8/10 and weighing in at 9st 2lb when I got the chance last week I went into that same cafe sat in the chair Yes you guessed it ,it was to big so you could say I have the last laugh, I just thought I would let you all know how I've been and why I had the surgery I would just like to add Good Luck To You All x
