I am sure the road to happiness is not being skinny, but neither is being overweight. Like many others I have constantly battled about being "big", not tall, but "big" most of my life. That word turned my young life into a constant battle with what the scales should say to me every day. Weight Watchers and the other so called diet factories that tell you off for adding an extra gram onto your weight is enough to bear, so now at 55 years I have had enough and I am now ready for the ultimate step and have Bariatric Surgery. It is four years of planning and gearing my mind to this, I am ready!!
