    Man that's crazy! but that's awesome you're still keeping at it! That take dedication. Yea I've been trying different "diets" but I stay around 2400 calories a day for my body type and over a gallon of water a day, with a good amount of cardio.

    I'm down 34 with another 100+ to go. I like to mix things up a little so I have mixed a few different techniques. Have moved to a real food diet with a lot more fruits and veggie, working on more activity but doing at least 30 min every other day working on adding more and now have added a 5:2 fasting regime to the plan. Open to connecting with folks who would like to get there together.

    I stared needing to lose 100. Now I just need to lose 67. I would love to help and get up along the way to victory. Getting fat sure was easier and oh so much more fun than getting skinny! ;) lol

    Amazing amount of weight loss. I've took around 10lb off in 2 weeks doing a vlcd but mainly in 1st week.
    I'm hoping to lose around 50lb total. I'm upping my daily calores to 900 from 800 because I was struggling on 800 and had a cheat day of a Saturday to around 3000 !
    Anyway great to see everybody driving to meet their goals

    Yes, I need to get from 22 stone to about 16 stone to be comfortable in my own skin, but if you go strictly by BMI I should be aiming for about 14 stone, but I think 15 is more sensible as I appear to have high bone and muscle content to start with (I have those scales with the metal foot plates and handles that measure body fat %).

    15 stone would mean I'd need to lose 98lbs, so not quite your 100, but not far off.

    Been at it since Jan 4th and lost 17 1/2 pounds so far, just from calorie restriction.
