I've always had a weight problem from been a child and my weight yoyo's each year, last year being 5 stones lighter than this year. I have an addictive personality which means I'm either committed to dieting or frantically troffing and nothing much in between. Following a car crash a few years ago i've developed osteo-arthritis in my knee and i'm under no illusions that this is exaccerbated by my weight. I have two young sons, aged 8 and 3 and want to be able to play with them without getting breathless. I shouldn't be physically incapable at 37 years old! I'm on my own with my boys so its me they look to for guidance and right now I'm not setting a very good example and most likely enroute to diabetes and heart problems if I dont catch the weight issue in time. I don't want them left alone without their Mummy.I want the band to restrict my food intake and to allow me to begin a healthy active life with my boys.
