The very beginning

[Chrystal_mason]

[FONT=&quot]Well this is my very first Blog, never done one before this is the start of a journey where things need to change, I need to change.
At this point in my life I am no longer happy with myself although my partner says I love you & your gorgeous just the way you are. I used to love myself and feel gorgeous but over the past 3 years I become distant with what I see in the mirror. I've always been heavy/overweight all my life -for as long as I can remember. My weight has always fluctuated at my biggest I was 25 stone at the age of 23.
I've tried the gym and all alternative methods as you can image, such as Weight Watchers..Slimming world..Several tablets (Prescription). Herbal tablets.
When I joined the Gym I lost 5 stone, over the course of 5 years the weight is mostly back again. I’m so fed up now being stuck in this cycle is like existing but NOT living life.
So this is where I start..!! [/FONT]

As times goes by I will add a little more detail about me..My life..My reasons.. My loss..My success.. [/FONT]

Hi Crystal, nice to meet you.

Unfortunately the wls is a bit of a waiting game, but you have taken the first steps, so at least you have made your start.

Hi, your lucky ur gp is referring u straight away, mine told me i have to do well seeing a nutritionist for 6months b4 he will refer me. At a bmi of only 41.5 if i do well ill be under 40 and too low to be referred. At such a low weight and having no health probs atm even if he does refer me im expecting a no so ive chosen to go private. Good luck on your weight loss journey x
