Firstly Hello I'm new here....
I started slimming world on Tuesday 1st of November 2011 and weighed in at a huge 17st 10.5Ib, I wanted to record that somewhere so I can hopefully look back and say look how far I've come. I actually feel quite emotional writing this along with all the normal reasons I have an extra reason for wanting to lose weight, I have a brain condition called idiopathic intercranial hypertension basically it means I have too much fluid on my brain and I make more than most people. It means I get terrible headaches and I am losing my sight, I've had surgery this year to put in a shunt to remove the fluid from my brain and pump it into my tummy to try and relieve the pressure. One of the things my Drs and Surgeons think is that losing weight might help, I know a lot of sufferers who it hasn't helped and I know sometimes drs blame everything on weight but it's got to be worth a try.
So that's that out the way about me I'm 35 live in Scotland I have a son a partner and 2 labs, I'm self employed running a small business that does garment printing and embroidery.
so as well as losing weight I'm hoping to make some new friends. Please do drop in
