In regards to my weight, I have over the years tried various things, stomach stapling and I loss about 31 kg's I was just 220 kg when I had that surgery! I have had extensive psychological therapy, which was very good, but it did not have the desired result. At them moment I am feeling very sick and sorry for myself and feel that I am at a cross roads and as yet have not decided what the next plan is.
I have certainly got myself into some trouble with this excess weight and I am paying the ultimate penalties.
