Help me record my weight loss journey
Donation protected
Hello all.
I am currently at the beginning of a long and hard journey to improve my health and well being. In January 2014 I weighed 158.8kg (thats approx 25 stone or 350lb). Through diet and exercise I have managed to get down to 151.8kg (approx 23 stone or 333lb).
I have been working with medical professionals to improve my weight and fitness and have been accepted to recieve a gastric bypass. What I would like to do though is document the process start to finish through a blog detailing pre and post operative care to aid others who may decide to follow a similar journey to myself. This blog would contain images of my progress, foods and new recipes I am using (and the recipes themselves!) and answering any queries people have about the process. I already have hosting in mind for the blog and am working with someone to design a website - however what I require more than anything is a high quality camera for photo documentation (currently my only camera is on my phone and I would like to have much better quality photographs of the process start to finish).
This campaign will help me get a new camera to document my journey via a weekly or more vlog where i can answer questions and give advice.
A few people have asked me why i'm doing something like this or whats the point. The main reason is that i have messed up my body over the years and if i can help just 1 person from having to go threw all of this, then i think it is worth my time and effort.
