Greetings I guess I skipped the intro and went straight on to load my picture gallery •. .. my name is David and im here to share my story.I grew up as an obese child which lead onto adulthood. My weight got as high as 240KG and after seeing photos of myself at a work function id had enough and decided to make a change, meanwhile I was approached by a friend and asked if I would consider bariatric surgery my initial response was 'get lost thats for the weak, I'll do this on my own' after 12 months of gym work and stumbling through diets I dropped down to 170kg hit a wall and became frustrated all the while my weight had crept up again. I decided that I needed help and took on board my friends advice, I went under the knife on April 30th 2012 and know that it was the best decision ive ever made. Im here to help encourage others on the same journey. You can do it!!!! Å
