Yeah, so food – I don't know if I emotionally – I kind of – when I was a child, I definitely – there's a story of me locking myself in a cupboard and gorging on sugar sandwiches because they felt nice and they felt good.

But I wouldn't necessarily say I'm an emotional eater.

Maybe I am and I just haven't made the connection.

I don't have this idea of myself that I feel sad and then I go and eat.

But maybe that's something that needs to come into my consciousness.

But I know this about my body, that my body wants to be at a certain size and it pushes towards that no matter what happens.

And I think I've messed my body up

From dieting, from over dieting.

I don't think the balance is normal.

And there's more scientific people.

There's a specialist in this area that will talk about it more.

They'll know more than me.

But I definitely I'm talking about my experiences with not liking my body and also the world.

Brendan so we can't ignore whatever's going on in my body can't ignore what society told me that being smaller equals being better being beautiful that all goes into play as well so yeah the gastric the gastric band and look I'm not for people who it works for that's fantastic but for me it actually was another form of disordered eating for me another another destination focused obsession that was never going to work because what was wrong with me was emotional and

What is wrong with me is emotional.

It's never been physical.

It's always been emotional.

Yeah.

So what's really important is this.

When I got the gastric sleeve, I'm sorry.
