This is my story
April 2008: I've always yo-yo dieted, I've tried every diet going, including Lipotrim, Weightwatchers, tablets from my GP etc etc. I always manage to lose a little and then put back on twice as much.
I had a gastric band fitted in Feb 2008 and have nearly lost 2 stone. I am having another fill shortly and am hoping it'll come off faster then. I have started eating rubbish again :(
July 2009: Well I had my third fill in August 2008 and the weight has been coming off steadily ever since. I would say that I am only losing an average of half a stone a month now which is ok, I'm getting there.
The best thing I ever did was to have my gastric band fitted. I feel like a new person; the day I went into hospital to have my band fitted I was wearing size 28 jeans....I now wear size 16.
When I was a student I used to work at River Island and used to blow all my wages on their clothes and shoes. When I gradually put on weight and no longer could get in their stuff, it wasnt enough to stop me piling it on.
One of my goals was to get back into River Island, I was sick of only being able to buy clothes from Evans or the New Look inspire range.
I have recently started shopping at RI again and even bought 2 tops from there that are size 14!! I am not sure how am I going to afford this new love of clothes shopping but I'll worry about that when the credit card bill comes!
My next goal is to wear a size 12 dress on NYE!! Fingers crossed:)
