00:00yeah i went for my early mot at the doctors um and at the end of it she was basically like you
00:04need to change your lifestyle or you're going to die um i had cholesterol issues i was on the
00:09cusp of type 2 diabetes heart problems um so i looked into all the the fads again i looked into
00:15the keto diet intermittent fasting i've tried them all uh slimming world uh weight watchers
00:20trying to keep track of the sins and understanding what's going on and what's pointed and what's
00:24that it's not how you do a diet how did this compare to the other ones foods and
00:29addiction to a fat person you're happy you eat you're sad you eat so the the injection takes
00:36away that craving i don't crave chocolate i don't crave crisps i know when i'm full a lot of people
00:42who use the scene using these drugs is like a cheat it's costing the nhs a lot of money is it a cheat
00:48yes it was from november to february i lost three stone only taking the injection and not eating
00:54um in february i joined the gym i now work out five days a week i completed couch to 5k and i go
01:02on 5k runs three times a week um so it was a cheat to begin with i absolutely agree but as for costing
01:08the taxpayers money maybe in the short term but you've said i don't get it from the taxpayers by
01:14the way i will say that i pay for it myself but i've saved your money on i'm not going to need type 2
01:18diabetes medicine i'm not going to need cholesterol medicine i'm not going to need any surgeries
01:23hopefully in future regarding weight issues even me kid like we'd have three takeaways a week and my
01:29daughter emma would have a bit of takeaway and it's changed her she started doing couch to 5k with
01:33us she sees daddy doing yoga she joins in with the yoga it's changing the kids as well so hopefully
01:39you'll see less obese adults but you'll start seeing less obese children as well so hopefully it will
01:44save the nhs money in the long run if people are struggling with with their weight okay what message
01:49would you have for them what would you want to tell them firstly speak to a doctor i consulted my
01:54doctor before going on it look into the side effects they are said my first week i had headaches and a
01:59bit of nausea that's gone i have no other side effects other than constipation uh but luckily
02:04giving me job enough of it comes out of my mouth on a daily basis so i don't need to worry too much
02:07um and i'd say give it a go it it genuinely has saved my life changed my life my wife's on it as
02:15well and she doesn't shout about it as much as me she's lost nearly six stone as well she's doing
02:20fantastic and we love each other a little bit we can hug each other now as well which is nice get
02:24our hands around and everything so yeah i'd say just look into it and give it a go if you are thinking
