Hi world, I am trying my hand at this blog business, hoping to track my success with my band.:thumbup:

A bit about me though first, I am a 34 year old mum of 2 - a girl and a boy, i've been with my partner Guy for ten years and slowly over time I have piled on more weight than I care to mention (well about 4 stone:scared2:).

Guy and I are getting married next year in New York and I'm so excited :smile: but one thing which has to change is my hidious body. I'm not saying I want to look like Kate Moss (truth is I have eaten her so she is on the inside) I just want to feel sexy again and not by my clothes from "Fat Lass Shops", my term so please don't take offence. At size 22 I am allowed too!!!!!

So today I have booked up for my Gastric band, been to see a clinic here in the UK but have decided to go to Belgium as money is dictating.

I am heading off on Thursday 10th October so I hope you will come with me on my journey between now and then. I am hoping to BLOG everyday and tell you all a bit more about me, why I have got to this point and what makes me think I can succeed.

See you all tomorrow........

How much weight are you hoping to lose in total?

Hi I'm hoping to loose about 5 stone.
