Well I've lost and regained some weight a few times, so I had a few straws.

Straw 1 - I was size 20UK/16US and realised my clothes were getting too tight and I was on the brink of going up yet...

I relapsed once more, having stopped counting any of my intake or exercising for several months. Illness contributed to it not being at the forefront of my mind as I had chronic pain for a while,...

I ticked the poll a while ago without introducing myself, and now I can't remember what I checked. I've been a member of a druid order for quite a few years, but I also have some Hellenic leanings...

I also get the urge to go out and have something well-chilled in a beer garden when it's hot. Plus DH had a couple of days off last week. Mostly I stuck to white or rose wine, but Saturday night I...

Don't be too disappointed. It's a start and it's heading in the right direction. Besides, once you get to your goal you may well want to continue calorie counting into maintenance, so it won't be...

I'm counting them but don't mind guesstimating the green leafy stuff. If it's a more calorific veg I'll weigh it.

I know I won't ever have a perfect body because of the ageing process, some loose skin (not that much). So I can easily point out problematic areas if I wish to, during maintenance. Still,...

I like most veg but my favourite is sugar snap peas, raw. 2nd favourite is tomatoes but only the really tasty ones. So I enjoy them far more in the summer when I can pick them out my greenhouse.

Sitting down in a chair with arms and finding the arms don't grip my hips.

Going out in a skirt in summer and not getting chafing on the inner thighs like I used to.

It does seem to be harder to find the lower fat milks in the larger sizes unfortunately. I've seen both 1% milk and skimmed it in a 4 pint version in my local Sainsburys - don't have a tesco near me...

Some of them round down or up the figures and some don't. The NHBI one would show your BMI at 21.8. I don't think the BMI charts are about aesthetics and it's more useful to think of it as a loose...

So it's not that low, then in your case. I'm tall, but I'm also 47 in a few week's time so I can't call myself young .
