Well yes I had bariatric surgery a year and a half ago. I have lost 11 stones which is 154lbs. I am now starting to run which I am finding an exhilarating challenge.

My op not only saved my life it has allowed me to take my enjoyment of excercise to a new level. I went to the gym and ate healthily at 23 stones but physically could not run or lose weight. Now my calories are around the 1000 - 1200 mark I am losing around half a pound a week. I walk 5-7 miles every day and I can shop for enjoyment not just to find something that fits.

I will be forever grateful for the life my op has gven me and now it is up to me to make sure it carries on this way!
