I may have some way to go yet … but what a difference from my biggest (about 6 years ago) … I did lose a lot of weight by dieting alone, but slowly it crept back on again … mainly my fault because I was a bit restricted to what I could do without ending up with a sore back! … now that is being sorted and I am once again enjoying all the exercise I used to do a lot of years ago … the difference is quite stunning … still around 2 stone to go though …
