"I’m nearly 46 and I feel that if I don’t lose it now, I’m never going to lose it. I want to live. I have a great life, I’m really happy and well loved and I want that to continue. I want to grow old with my husband and I want to see my kids have grand kids and be around for them. That’s not going to happen while I’m so fat”

Katey says:
“Every day’s a battle with myself, I hate looking in the mirror. It’s horrible being the way I am. I don’t think anyone knows how bad it is for me. Who wants to weigh more than their age?”
