For at least the last ten years I have been struggling with my weight. Since about a year I've been suffering from daily back pains and heartburn and frequent migrains. Nothing seems to help, the only thing the doctor said: "You'll have to live with this, but loosing weight might help."
Lately I've started to notice my lack of enthousiasm to go out: I feel too self conscious: if I hear people whispering, I'll assume that they're talking about me, I hesitate to order desserts because people will probably think: "Why would she order that, she's already too heavy!"
Also I've become more insecure in my relationship, my libido has reduced to almost nothing: I don't understand how my boyfriend can get aroused by the body that disgusts me most of the time. How can he like it, if I hate it?
So finally on August 9th I had plucked up enough courage to contact my GP through an E-consult, I explained to him that I had tried lots of different diets that didn't help and asked him what else I could do to loose weight, at that point I weighed 115,9 kilos (255,52 lbs). He asked me to arrange an appointment with him, which I did for August 17th.
