Afternoon to one and all, It's Dave the yo-yo master from the good ol' United Kingdom!!! You may know the story of why I'm back, do all the hard work, losing 2 stone, ignore the warning signs and hey-presto, it's (not so) magically appeared again. So dear friends :) , I'm back looking for (new and old) comrades in the…

I am now 82 days in to my 'diet'. Emphasis on 'diet'. 6FT 2", starting off at around 15 stone, I have just weighed in at a tad over 13 stone this morning. 18 months ago, I did the diet thing, loads of exercise which I really don't like, no food weighing scales and denied myself enough of the treats which any human should…

I see it as 99% motivation with the remaining 1% allocated to education, knowledge et al. I know what to eat, roughly when and how to eat but keeping motivated is the real cliff hanger. My biggest struggle is to reinvigorate that motivation if I start to fall by the wayside. That in itself requires 100% willpower,…

Go gals. I always feel the easy bit is saying what you want to achieve, STARTING the journey is much more difficult. The journey begins, you got my support.

Feel free to add. I too can only eat real food, purely because I need to go through the actions of preparing, cooking and the best bit, EATING the food. What an amazing coomunity. Just two days in and all the stories, are so positive and inspiring.

I'm in. Initially i want to lose another 18 lbs. Good luck to all and remember how good you will look when you start eating into your personal targets. Feel free to add if you wish.

7lbs till you go to NY. Go Leah. Just think how amazing you will feel and look in NY for your trip. I would wish you loads of luck but you know you will and can do it!!!! As for 6 egg omelettes, sounds good to be giving them up. May i say, they sound a little boring.

Thankyou for the encouragement. Never thought of adding the daily walks as I just saw them as part of every day life. Well done you on the well balanced foods, enjoy your tea!!!

Interesting way of thinking. I actually like it. Just a slight tweak to my current thinking but actually, yeah I like the thinking.

The money I never have enough at Christmas!

Thanks Kellster and fatdoob. Your both looking great, so motivation in itself is there to start. The only real exercise I enjoyed was football but age and being useless has not helped there. Kellster, you have hit a nerve with the bike! Unbelievable but i didn't think of that even though I used to enjoy it loads when my…

Whilst i am no expert, I think food should be seen as fun and enjoyable. The bit my wife and I enjoy are preparing and cooking food. Plan your food over the week around your dietary needs, monetary constraints if applicable and experiment on new dishes, ensuring you have lots of fresh produce and spices. Make your own…
