My whole life I have been either fat/obese or morbidly obese. I have exercised, dieted and taken pills,, but the yo-yo goes on. For a long time I gave up and accepted this as my fate, but have increasingly felt a strong desire to see my kid grow up.
My best diet 10 years ago dropped me to about 105kg, last year I got down to 125kg, this time I started at 145kg. Am currently down to 129 thanks to the vlc diet, and it seems "easy", but I have to remind myself that it will not last, my will power will weaken and its all coming back.
A friend had a lapband and I asked her hundreds of questions, it convinced me to explore surgery as an option. My surgeon introduced me to the lap sleeve idea and after a lot of research I have decided to go down this course.
This blog (if I keep it up to date) is for my future self and maybe my daughter to read when she is old enough. But you are welcome to read it as I have read many others as a source of inspiration and strength. It is nice to be part of such a strong, supportive and brave community.
