md75

I am a 35 year old mum of twins. I have struggled with my weight for most of my life apart from a few years between the age of 18 to 23. I also have polycystic ovaries which is making it very difficult for me to lose weight. Although I manage to eat healthily 80% of the time, I realise that I do eat more than my daily requirements and hence, the struggle. I have tried all the usual clubs like WW, SW, Rosemary Conley etc but find losing weight very difficult. Along with some other difficulties in my personal life, the weight issue is now making me quite depressed and I wanted to find out if someone like me would be helped by the gastric band. Although I am uniformly fat all around, I do have more fat deposits on my arms and legs than anywhere else. I really want to be fit, healthy, confident and and wear beautiful clothes, rather than try and find clothes that hide my body. Also, on a more sensible note my father was a diabetic and a heat patient and I am already insulin resistant, so improving my health would also be a big factor.
