    Thanks! :)

    Basically just cutting the crap, very little dairy and only skimmed milk in my tea. I cut out bread, ready meals and takeaways wit the odd exception as a treat after a big loss (haven't touched a Chinese since before Christmas).

    Yes - GREAT work, and if my body comp monitor is to be believed, water/other weight on my 5'8" woman's frame can fluctuate by as much as 3 + pounds, so I think at this close to 80 pounds, you can think that you probably have achieved that, for all practical purposes :).

    Excellent. Although - you're a 6'3" male and want to get down to 154 lbs? I weigh about that and I'm a 5'10" woman! You look really, really great - just be careful. Do you weight train?

    I want to get down to the lowest end of my normal weight before I start any serious weight training, a blank canvas as such. I mainly do body resistance exercises and 15kg dumbbell curls and vertical rows
  • You do look great! Well done!
