Just wanted to say Hi to everyone 
I've been looking in on this forum for months and have just posted my first thread after learning that I have funding for surgery!
I hate being fat, couple that with the fact that I need surgery to both my knees which cause me a lot of pain to the point that even just walking can be difficult and standing for any length of time is out of the question. This has had a massive impact as it interferes with every aspect of my life.
In the past I have lost very large amounts of weight – the first time 6 ½ stones with good diet and exercise only to put it all back on again and more. The second time I lost 8 1/2 stones with Lighterlife of which I have put back on 7 stone. So I have proved I can lose weight but cannot control myself to keep it off. Hence my route to surgery.
