‘I no longer suffer with diabetes or high blood pressure and I’m much more mobile.”
‘But despite this, the guilt of what I’ve done consumes me. I comfort eat and my weight has plateaued at 17 stone.’
Mathew said: ‘I don’t blame my mum, and I’m really glad she has lost a lot of weight, but I hate being so fat. I just can’t stop eating, even though it’s killing me.’
Joseph added: ‘I have a lot to offer and I want to work, but weighing 29 stone I have no chance. It is really depressing. Food is the only thing that keeps me going.’

When someone says I know it’s killing me, but I can’t stop then you have to get yourself a place straight into rehab.
