This is my story
Hi, I am 57 years old. Divorced and disabled. I have 4 children, 8 grandchildren and another one on the way. I recently had to sell my houseand have now movef in with my parents who are both in their 80's (due to the fact that my Dad had a stroke and mum needed some support, also I was having great difficultly managing my stairs due to mobility problems. My parents live in a bungalow so we killed 2 birds with one stone so to speak. I think my problems started after going through a long and bitter divorce in 1995. The weight seemed to creep on very gradually after I was diagnosed with hip, spine and knee problems and I was told not to do any exercise. I am going into hospital on Tuesday to have my knees washed out and the tendons tidied up. Sounds gross doesn't it? I have been on every diet imaginable, lose several pounds if not stones then put it all back on again plus another half a stone and thats how it has gone on until I have reached this awful weight now. I hate myself, try to cover myself up in clothing that's too big and will sweat cobs instead of taking my cardigan or jacket off. I do not go around feeling sorry for myself, just damned annoyed that I cannot get this eating thing under control. I spent over £400 earlier this year going down to London to spend the day having hypnosis and that didn't work either.
