I've lost two stone since Mackerel moved into care.
It's a combination of not doing comfort eating - which I did a LOT of while he was at home - and deciding that I don't have to eat just because I feel hungry.
Still got a long way to go to my ideal weight, and, to be honest, I'm not fussed about getting there, but it feels great to have achieved that.

Wow well done Corkwing that's a huge achievement, bet you feel a lot better.
Myself and Moo have been on the exante diet and I've lost 1.5 stone and Moo has lost over 2 stone and TBH it's been really easy. First diet I have ever been on in my life, but I decided I needed to act now before I became a blimp as menopause doesn't do us ladies any favours. I am already feeling fitter and had to leg it to an appointment last week when I missed my earlier train and was going to be late so I legged it up a hill to get to my appointment on time and noticed that I wasn't hyperventilating when I got there like I used to before. Hadn't been there for 10 months and I really noticed the difference and only yesterday I had to leg it, a short sprint to catch a bus, and again I noticed I was ok when I sat down and wasn't so out of breath, so am well pleased that I am regaining some level of fitness without having to carry the extra weight.
Have you reached your target yet?

I really need to lose weight. I was a size 14 when Shrimp came home. I am now a size 22!!! Awful thing is, I was a size 26, lost 7 stone to get to where I wanted to be.

Have I reached my target?
I don't have a final target. Next target is to lose another stone. I'm wondering about targetting the London to Brighton cycle ride in September but haven't committed to it yet.
