I've lost about 8.5 stone in the last 2 years. Size 24 to a size 12.
I do feel I get treated differently, which upsets me in some ways. I've always been the same person after all.
But on a positive, people are nicer and friendlier and I definitely command more attention from men. I also ditched about 18 stone of useless husband, and I'm very much enjoying single life now I'm a lot more confident in my body.
Apart from that, I feel fit, healthy and full of energy
