The Begining

Hi I had a mild heart attack on the 3rd November 2003 and was told have the banding done or be dead in 3months and that certanly was not on my immediate agenda. At that stage I weighed a massive 385lb or 175kg . Within 6weeks of seeing Dr George Fielding I was having my band done. It was the saddest time for me a couple of years later when Dr Fielding moved to New York to train Dr's in the US how to do the band operation.Please look after him over there as he is a very special person and a staright shooter. Over the next 18months my weight came down gradually,I kept going to my local weight reduction club and they were the best support along with my family.I truly believe that you need as much positive support as possible. In February 2005 I was presented with the State Title for Queensland fro the most weight loss ***LOOSER OF THE YEAR AWARD***I was so wrapped to think that I could achieve anything like this as in all the years leading up to my banding I had never been able to stay on any diet::kiss2:
