Diane Fuller of Grimsby

Was BMI 35, currently BMI 27

‘’I had the gastric band fitted 9 months ago, I’ve now lost most of my excess weight, I’m nearly at my ideal weight, I’m almost there, not far to go!

People I’ve not seen for a while don’t recognise me, I get so many compliments on my appearance now. I feel FANTASTIC!

It’s the best thing I’ve ever done for myself. I thought about having it done for a couple of years, my only regret is that I didn’t have it done sooner.

With the help of the Gateway Team and my partner David I’ve had no problems whatsoever. The team are always there at the end of the phone and I see them in clinic every single month. They encourage and support me in every way possible.”
