This is my story
I'm 43 now (but feel like 73 on the inside) and have been overweight since Primary School, I've lived most of my life on a diet or wearing black (was always told it makes you look thinner) The last few years I've stopped all that and have actually lost some weight, diets do make you fat! I just need to loose a lot more, and keep it off.
I'm going to have a gastric band shortly,just waiting for a date, not an easy decision to make, but I've had enough of being fat and can now see this as the only way I'll ever be thin.
I've thought a lot about having it done. I'm scared to death of being left with a load of horrible loose skin (been watching too much USA tv) but..after seeing a UK program, this lady had lost 6 stone, had all the skin removed and looked fantastic. I decided there and then that even if I do end up with lots of baggy skin, I'd rather have thin baggy skin that fat and baggy!!
