I used to walk with walking sticks, a limp and a great deal of pain. Now thanks to modern technology and a fair amount of metal I walk without pain, the sticks and the limp therefore I feel younger and there is much more I can now do!

I have learnt to love myself which means I can love others. I have more confidence.

I am still keeping the clothes from 5 years ago...just incase I lose more weight although there is a stone and a half less of me now than there was 8 weeks ago!
