What exactly did you do
Hi there Yogi,
Basically moved more and ate less (I HATE it when people say that, but it's what worked for me). As I started off unfit, I joined a gym and went about three times a week (treadmill, crosstrainer, some light weights). After a few months, I added a weekly zumba class. Then, I added a weekly kettlebell class (I swear the weights kept excess skin at bay).
As time went on and I got fitter, I incorporated more zumba classes and visited the gym occasionally. I now exercise six days a week and eat sensibly Monday - Friday, and relax at weekends. There's no way I'd deny myself that Chinese takeaway or sneaky vino
Hope this helps.

Well done on some cracking hard word. Just wanna say I really love your style. Loving the blue dress and accessories And it's great you look so happy in both as I think that loving yourself helps get to where you wanna go a bit quicker and more pain-free! Great job! 0

Thank you ever so much, much appreciated. I held onto that blue dress to see if a talented seamstress can shrink it (it's my favourite!), so we can hope
And you're absolutely right - I was happy with life in general in the first photo, but very unhappy about my weight. It was so long-term, though, that I kind of got used to being unhappy. That sounds terribly morose, and I don't mean it to - but it's funny what you get used to.
But the second one, on holiday, healthy and happy. I do love my alliteration...
Thank you again x0 -
You look absolutely beautiful! Congrats on your success! 0

Goodness me. As I said earlier, I'm gutted I didn't know about this site when I was sat on my sofa, dressed and ready to go to the gym, and watching my slim then-housemate tuck into her fish and chips (I could have wept/strangled her/delete as appropriate). What a fantastic support network; and how important that is. Thank you all so much.0

Wow absolutely amazing - you look beautiful.
I hope you find that amazing seamstress because that blue dress is fabulous
I've ditched the starvation diet & hoping that the eat right exercise more will kick start my downward journey to 175lbs but seeing your post today really made it seem real.
For the first time in a long time I actually said 'WOW' out loud when I saw your pictures.
Well done you must be very proud0 -
You were super cute before.
And now you're even cuter!
Such great inspiration
