Not dieting as such , just trying to be a bit more sensible about what I eat and now much I eat.

Lost a bit of the extra belly, ie I don’t look pregnant anymore , so I’m doing okay.

The problem is that I have no muscle tone underneath this wobbly exterior
Not a good look but I don’t care.
Losing a bit of weight has helped with my agility/mobility and with a bit of exercise it will help with my physical endurance.

We are not talking competitive athlete here, more like being able to get up the stairs without puffing

I cut out week day wine and make sure i eat a smaller evening meal no later than 7pm. No more than one bottle of wine on the weekend.

So far after 8 weeks i've dropped about 16lbs.

On top of that if i eat anything with bread, i have one slice now now two and if i want a big meal, it's either breakfast or lunch.

And i'm T1 diabetic.

It's Lent so this week has been horrible not eating chocolate or crisps. It's Sunday which is a feast day so I'm having a coffee and eating Nutella from the jar...
In the week I've been pretty good, hit the gym hard too so hopefully it's all had an impact

Not on a diet per se. I've never really been over 60kg in my life. However, I have been a major sweetie fiend, and due to health issues decided to do something about it. So from 1st June to 24th December I went completely sugar-free, apart from natural occurring sugars in fruit and carbs.

It was difficult, not only because of the cravings, but because of my original enforced wheat, egg, dairy-free dietary requirements - I had to eliminate so much food including gluten-free bread, crackers, crisps that also have added sugar - I mean c'mon!!

Anyway I managed 6months completely free...and then allowed myself cake and stuff over the festive period. However, I am shocked at how little sugary items I could actually tolerate...I have found that I barely want much sugar at all.

When I bake now, I use a splodge of either honey or rice malt syrup and sometimes I don't bother at all. I use cinnamon powder to sweeten porridge. The only sugars I tend to have these days are in free-from bought bread, soya cream, crisps and crackers.

I get the sugar free thing.
I’m not quite there as far as you Ms Clanger, nor do I intend to take it nearly that far.
However all that sugar in so much of the things we buy to eat makes me think yuk!

As for honey always have some in the house.
I put a drop in my tea now and again if I’m having a sweet tooth moment.

I'm the heaviest I've been but still in a size smaller jeans than I was at when I was a stone lighter. Must be the muscle

Can't seem to get rid of the last bit of flab, but have got some good muscle tone underneath it now, and noticeably more muscle bulk. Think I might even be a T2 diabetic, plus the limitations from all the old injuries, and wish I could afford a better diet. But pretty happy with where I'm at, all things considered. It's all something to do.

106-ishkg down to 98-ishkg at the 5 week mark.
About a stone and a half roughly
( crappy old scales must get new ones)
As initial weight loss is 'water weight' I dont
expect any further loss to be so dramatic.

Not all plain sailing but a lot easier than I expected as
I've never been on a diet in my life ( unless you include the 'see food' diet)
using the NHS online calculator my BMI has gone from 30 which is borderline obese to 27
which I hoped they'd say was pleasantly plump, but they say I aint, I'm still a fat bastard.
Ho hum
Onwards and downwards, early days and all that.

So being skint, my diet has changed considerably anyway, and turns out many of the things I have switched to are the healthiest options. I wish fresh fruit and veg wasn't so expensive though.

Much less sugar and fat now, and I crave it less and less, only weak points being chocolate digestive biscuits (which at least I don't tend to cane like other biscuits), and sugar in coffee.

I don't worry too much about animal fats in meat, eggs, milk so much, as some fat is a requirement - more concerned about sugar intake, and refined carbs generally. But I reckon I've got a pretty decent balance, considering my limited means.
