Having my gallbladder out was the kick start to my weightloss. My pain started in December 2011, and was severe, and by Feb 2012 I was hospitalised with it for 3 days. I was a mess, and hadn't cut down enough on the fatty stuff. I came out of hospital, was bedridden, living on jelly, fruit juice, fruit mentos and the…

So proud of you (and so glad I put my foot down about you not wearing stuff that is currently on eBay!) Your new pants look fantastic - I don't think I've even seen a pair of pants fit you so well in the 15 years we've been together. I'm well proud, innit ;) xx

*waves pom poms and cheers*

I started making some changes about this time last year (cut out takeaways etc) but I'd say it was February when I had to make big changes (hospitalised due to gallstones) and lost a stone very rapidly. Started MFP in June and have been hovering around goal weight for a couple of weeks now. I train with a PT once a week,…

Fantastic - keep it up. My partner hit 299 on Oct 31st, which was his target, and he's really pleased. I know you are too. You have to do it for yourself, not to please anyone else. Well done!

It is a very lucky lady who gets to marry you ;)

Good for you! I saw my chiropractor after 10 months and 3 stone lighter, and he said "I'm not being rude, but man have you lost a lot of weight!" It's a great feeling isn't it?

Being diagnosed with gallstones. I thought it was very bad IBS - I spent my nights bellowing like a heifer in labour because of the pain - I shouted myself hoarse and scared my partner so much he thought I was dying. I was into my biggest clothes, and they were cutting in, the nurse phoned me on New Years Eve to tell me I…

Mine will be a tattoo. I'm so damn close!

@cchapman89 - no, you have lovely eyes.

I have a Gilette Fusion Power (men's razor - my partner and I bought them around the same time so that we could split the cost of a pack of blades!) and I use my normal hair conditioner or Cetraben oil, depending on how dry my legs are. I tend to have noticeable dark stubble 24 hours after, and both shaving and leaving…

The Today programme on Radio 4, the rain hitting the dining room window and pavement, and the sound of cars swishing through the water on the main road. It's actually quite pleasant! I'm going to miss my chill time after breakfast when I go back to work next week.

@SweetCheekszx - nope, I like the way it's broken up into four panels, and you have a lovely smile!

Hedgehog? Way cool!

Hello! I'm a 5'5" primary teacher who lives with a mad giant house rabbit (who eats all my furniture and bites me when I try to do anything for her welfare, such as brushing, giving meds or cleaning out her cage) and sings in a choir (me, not the rabbit, although she is like an unofficial mascot). In your profile pic I…

*cheers and waves pompoms* you know I'm really proud of you kiddo, keep going! x
