Latest reviews & success stories
It could seem quite materialistic, but for me, I love the fact I can just go clothes shopping because it’s something I’ve never been able to do before. And knowing that I can just pop in and get something, and sometimes it’s too big. It’s a really nice feeling.
My life is completely different now, my entire life has changed. Even just the way I carry myself is completely different – I can walk down the street with a wee bit of pride in myself... When I was younger there were four things that I wanted to be. I wanted to be a dad, be a radio DJ, a wrestler and I wanted to be an author. Over the last couple of years, I’ve managed to do all four of them.
