  • I started in November 2011 at 256lbs with a target loss of 65lbs in mind. Careful dieting and some exercise (mostly golf now the weather is getting better) now has me at 68lbs lost(187lbs).

  • Hi, I have been using exante meal replacements based on the cambridge diet. This includes shakes, soups and nutrition bars. Started in November 2011 and now starting to fade off the diet as I have passed my target weight. Certainly worked for me but does require a strong will and dedication. MFP also helps monitor and keep…

  • Not just women i'm afraid. I get remarks like 'You don't want to lose too much' and 'you're looking very ill these days'. Funny how I'm feeling fitter than before. I think previous members have it right that it's just jelousy and lack of willpower. Admittedly it is difficuly for people as you change from the way they are…
