Just that really.

I've been counting calories since November and lost 21lbs. I'm starting to see the changes in my body and its really spurring me on and I'm starting to feel great within myself.

There is a hint of a collar bone showing and starting to see my neck take shape rather than it just morphing in to my shoulders.

i'm feeling fantastic and just wanted to share :)

i am 14st and have 35lbs still to loose but by god i feel great

Anyone else enjoying the weight loss beneifts?

Just wanted to say well done on your loss so far!
It’s a hard slog losing weight, I’ve lost 11lbs so far and I’ve had to make a lot of changes to how and what I eat and drink, and I’ve joined a gym.

I feel more energetic, feel better about myself, more confident in clothes, and I’m making healthier food for the rest of my family too, so I’m hoping my DC will have better habits as they grow up.

Keep it up!

Yes I've lost a stone in the last five weeks. I'm eating about 1700 cals a day which seems to be sustainable. Tonight I had takeaway so probably went well over, but I'm confident that I'll be back on track tomorrow.
My mantra is if I stick to it I'm thinner today than I was yesterday.

Well done! Such a good feeling! That’s so brilliant! I am trying to lose weight at the moment- just another 9lb to go, verrrrry slowly coming off!

Well done that's amazing. I'm also trying to lose weight I'm down 11lbs. I have so much more energy and I can also see some changes in the shape of my body. My face and nose are slimmer, have lost 6.5 inches on my thighs my back and arms are slimmer too. Still have a good bit to lose but I seem to lose it very slowly. Keep it up you're doing great!

Me too! I’ve lost around half a stone in almost a month and have another stone to go. I’ve had to make big changes and I have had a couple of inner rebellion days where I have reverted to old habits (involving guess what… wine!) but these only serve to make me feel like I want to carry on the dieting because the difference in how I feel is amazing. I’m low ish carb, lots of protein and veg and healthy fats

I've lost 30lb since October and it's just so much easier to sprint after the kids or run up the stairs. It's such a nice feeling when you try in clothes and the size smaller fits. I'm still overweight and have another 1.5 stone to loose but I'm even contemplating buying a bikini as I'm feeling so much more confident.

It's such a great feeling isn't it? I'm beginning to like what I see in the mirror
