Cheers to you too! Mines flat tap water ta!

That's excellent finding a way that works to suit you. Sounds like a healthy natural change of lifestyle rather than a 'diet'. Good luck.

Hi! Losing weight isn't easy, does seem to get harder the older you get. I'm now 59 and will be 60 in December, would like to shed a load of pounds before then. New year - new try! Good luck everyone, friend if you would like to.

Hi! Good to hear from you and that you've got into the right mindset to start again. Life aint easy! Glad life is looking up. Take care.

I drink caffeine free diet cola. Couple of cans a day. Makes a big difference calorie wise. Also drink a lot of water.

Well done you!

Hi! Age doesn't matter. Welcome to the group. It isn't easy losing weight. There are lovely supportive people to be found here. Hope you have settled well in your new home. Good luck.

Hi! Losing weight is tough and doesn't get easier with the menopause!!! I'm always battling weight so feel free to add as a friend if you wish. There are some lovely supportive people here. Good luck.

Ask if it's read the book, 'Fifty shades of hay'.

sjsmith9 is right. Your calorie intake is probably too low. Sounds daft but you won't get slimmer if you eat too few cals. Your body will store as much as it can then. I wasn't losing weight for a while and it turned out to be a low thyroid problem so make sure you and bloods have been medically checked for any problems.…

Just when you think it's all over!

Hi Noelene! Glad to hear your ongoing battle with cancer is working. Losing weight is tough, for me I'm my own worst enemy! I'm on most days so add me as a friend if you wish. Take care.

Hi! Not used or heard of kefie but just a comment on eczema, my husband has it and I changed to an oatmeal based, non allergic, soap which helps. There are a few washing powders and fabric softeners that set him off too. An old fashioned 'cure' was to tie a muslin bag of oatmeal and put it into the bath.

Was going to say 'hello' but can't get past the visual image of OhLeita's 'oozing dish of mac & cheese'! Hope the support you are looking for is here. Good luck.

The 'small yay's' all add up. Good for you getting into smaller size. Good luck for the future.

Hi! Rapidly heading towards 58 and losing weight slowly over last year and a half. Feel free to add me and good luck.

Well done - you're looking fabulous! Like the Black and White Film Star might just steal that idea!

Congratulations! You did it! Brilliant.

You've done brilliantly - congratulations! Enjoy the 12's.

1000 White Women sounds interesting. Why were the Government thinking of sending women as brides for Indians? Read a few Stephen King books but not a fan, I've enough problems with sleep as it is! Got a Kindle a couple of years ago, like you bubblyebabeuk I download the free and 99 pence books. Great for non-brainstrain…

Will look at it more later. Love stories of people who 'beat the odds' or just get on with life. Makes you feel you have nothing to moan about. Seems to be a few interesting articles in there too.

I like it too but just do it at home using a couple of lessons on YouTube.

Scales drive you nuts! How about your body shape, size is it changing? I measure myself once a month and often find the inches are shifting when the weight doesn't. (still don't understand that!) Weigh yourself once a week on the same day, okay so that's near impossible, try for a month see if that looks better. 1200 is…

Once a week on a Tuesday - but I do sometimes jump on at other times just to keep check. (Really in the hopes that the Weight Fairy has been during the night and taken a few pounds - sigh!)

Hillwalking and walking.

Menopause is such a joy! NOT!!!! Periods stopped about seven/eight years ago and I still get hot flushes, night sweats blah, blah, blah. Think I'll just stop there or I'll be writing for hours!

Hi! I'm well over 50 - will be 58 in December so feel free to add me. I'm on site most days and find the support great. Good luck.

Congratulations - you look beautiful. You must be so proud of yourself.
