Hello lovely people! I just wanted to share here (because I haven't told anyone in real life) that I have finally made it out of the obese category and into overweight on the Bmi chart!! I am feeling so happy today 🙂 My weight hasn't been this low for 9 years. I know I am still overweight, but today feels like a day to celebrate my success so far!

That's amazing! Well done. Any top tips to share?

Well done @LessOfMe99!

Such an amazing achievement- well done! 👏

Well done! I’ve been trying to do the same. I almost got there at Christmas when I was 5 pounds away. I can’t believe it’s nearly Christmas and I’m still trying to get there due to unexpected circumstances and struggles, but but I’m finally starting to lose it again little by little and just 7 pounds left to shift!

CONGRATULATIONS LESSOFME99

Well done! I'm just happy I have gone 36 hours without eating any sweets or biscuits! 😂

Congratulations!!! That's a great achievement.

I'm nowhere near my target weight, but celebrating the number on my scales going consistently down over the last few weeks. It's gradual but it is actually going in the right direction!

Thank you very much for your kind comments!
It has taken me 5.5 months to lose 2stones and get to this point. I've gone from size 22 to a smallish 16.
I will be honest and say I have found it very hard and have been hungry often. But I feel much better physically. I have decided to maybe drop another size and then concentrate on maintaining that weight- I am not aiming for skinny x
