    Thank you to everyone who commented. It's been really nice to read your positive comments :)

    In response to rocket_ace's post about what method I use; First off, I adapted a healthy living lifestyle, i.e. not dieting. I looked at what I was eating and portion sizes. I changed a few things like moving away from cherry tomatoes to baby plum tomatoes and not assuming eating vegetables in large quantities was always 'healthy'. I don't ever think I can't have anything, if I truly want something then I'll have it but the fact of the matter since I've been eating more healthy, I don't crave much in the way of 'junk' food. Most of my fat loss has been through diet alone. I started to exercise more actively once I'd lost 4 stone. I have taken up the couch to 5k running program.

    Going out to eat is interesting these days because I'm usually full before I've finished a meal. Very rarely do I have a dessert, not because I don't want one but because I just don't have space for it.

    Interestingly, when colleagues bring cake into the office, I just look at it now and think I don't need that, it's added calories which I just don't need. Funny thing is I just don't miss it.
