“I now know I don’t have to be fat for the rest of my days”

My life was very different a year ago.

I didn’t want to leave the house because I was so conscious of my weight. I couldn’t even enjoy going out with my friends because I had no self-confidence. I thought that I’d just have to accept that I would always be fat. My wake-up call came when I was minding my nephew. I struggled to keep up with him – he was only 9 months!
