Just over two years ago I could barely walk across a room without crutches and weighed nearly 21 stone, on Sunday after losing just over 10 stone I completed Brighton Marathon.

Would I be bu to mention this at every opportunity and wear my t-shirt and medal constantly for the next month????

I feel all warm and fuzzy just reading that. Well done, OP. Truly. Fantastic. You would be VVVU not to wear both at all times. All times.

And have a banner printed and hung across your house.

You are AMAZING I'd love to hear your story as to how you did this turn around - we'll dine you little superstar!

flumpybear · 17/04/2018 18:32

That should say 'well done ' but we'll dine is fantastically appropriate as I'm assuming this had an impact lol Wink
