It was xmas 2010 when I found the old scales in the bathroom cabinet and discovered that I was 15 Stone (210 lbs) and had become obese on the UK BMI scale. Not a nice discovery!!! At new year I started a high protein diet but found it hard to track my progress and calorie intake. I therefore joined 'myfitnesspal' towards the end of January and have, after only 6 months, hit my healthy target weight. I have lost over 3 Stone in total (45 lbs), I am now 11 Stone 11 oz (165 lb)! I always thought dieting would be hard but with the right healthy and high protein foods and light exercise anything is possible. I feel and look the best I have for many many years! Thanks and good luck everyone!!!

    Good man. I have just started my journey. I gave up smoking, I've beat cancer twice, so this should be easy?
