Hi Guys and Girls.
Just thought I’d Say Hi and introduce myself,
I’m 28 from the east midlands and a man other than that not quite sure where to begin really, for the first time in 13 years I’m deadly serious about loosing weight and becoming healthy.
I currently weigh 25st 8lb.
after going to the hospital on Monday to have an operation and being told they could not operate on me as I’m a High risk, due to my weight and possible sleep apena (not confirmed but suspected and appointment has been booked with specialist) I realised my weight is Killing me.
I’m slowly but surely dying because of my weight and choices I have made, spent 2 days basically crying, worrying and generally feeling sorry for myself, hell the anaesthetist put the fear of god in me to the point where I was scared to sleep because I was convinced I was about to die, but woke up Wednesday knowing I have to do something and knowing I have to do it now. I’ve got a lot left I want to experience, nieces I want to see grow up.
Since Wednesday I’ve cut out all the crap, not a single piece of chocolate, not a single crisp, or sip of pop, or beer (god I miss my beer) and have only eaten healthy fresh foods. I’ve averaged 2 miles a day walking the dog every day since Wednesday. I’ve called my local Slimming World and I’m going there on Tuesday, hopefully Slimming world is for me, if not I’ll try something else. Looking forward to seeing if my current efforts have made any difference (my bathroom scales tell me to “get off fatty” when I get on, so will have to buy a decent set)
Anyway apologises for rambling on. Been having a good look around here and it seem like a great site full of information and people going through similar situations.
Hope to get to know you all soon

there are a few great guys floating about on here-if you can find their blogs to have a read-Maximus is already at target, but full of inspiration and motivation and stuff for others, and ColJack is flying along and I think he's lost 9 stone so far
