    Thank you very much for all your kind words, even after just 6 months I cant believe the change.

    I know im still very over weight BMI 49 but I feel loads better. I even get to play football with my little boy now without feeling like I'm about to pass out.

    Sounds small but to me just being able to do simple things I had problems with is a complete life changer and has made my journey so far worth every bit of sweat and tears.

    What you're doing for yourself will also benefit your children in so many positive ways. You'll be around for them, be able to do more with them and you're setting such a good example for them. You're an inspiration for all of us!
