My BMI was over 70 yep 70....

I was banded on the 5th of feb and I am looking forward to gaining the support of people who have been around my weight. I appreciate my family and friends sticking by me but unless you have been this big its hard for people to understand, there is sadness behind my smile, there is hurt behind my laughter. I cant wait til things fit til i feel like I fit!!!

Thank you so much for this site, for your posts, to gain inspiration and to see how far you have all come is awesome

Congratulations everyone

I look forward to talking to you and reading more of your posts
