I'd guess my natural is about 15 stone. My diet has been shocking for the last few months. Eat way too much bread and I eat something sweet every day, like a bar of chocolate.

Maybe we could do a joint effort hems Silly?

I'll get the scale out and give myself a shock Sad

In my younger days I used to box off one of those family trifles in a single sitting Laugh

12 stone is a bmi of 22 for me, so it wasn't ridiculous on paper. Because I tend to be analytical nature not hitting my target was absolutely annoying in the extreme. I had a plan and I couldn't finish it off.

You can do it if you were 12 stone in your teens. 14 stone would be a reasonable target hems

Cider you couldn´t have been staying the same weight on 500 cals. That´s starvation territory.

I´ve lost about 2 stone and heading down, need to lose a couple more but haven´t been this “light” for 10 years.

Some long term studies I once looked at concluded that exercise generally, but particularly resistance training, was the worst way to lose weight. These people lost the least and, if they were successful, they put the weight back on again.

I think it´s because with exercise the subconscious is saying MUST EAT and the subconscious always wins. It´s different if it doesn´t feel too strenuous and is merely part of daily routine like cycling to work or walking more.

I normally cycle and kayak but don’t feel like it with reduced food (I’m not overdoing it, still 3 meals a day). Looking forward to being more active again in a few months.

It's true Henners. My metabolism must be really slow. I was pretty much eating a yoghurt for breakie (100cals) and a low fat ready meal (400cals).

Sometimes a packet of Quavers or Wotsits instead of yoghurt.

Again because of my analytical nature I was obsessed with reading the nutrition and knew exactly how many calories I was consuming. When I gave up I didn't binge eat or anything. I just stopped the control, but carried on exercising.

Must admit 17.10 is abit disappointing. About 10lb more than I had imagined GrinSad

Definitely can be done. I won't bother with 12 stone this time. 13, maybe.

We´re all so similar (unfortunately so in this instance). I too am 6` and in the past would often eat a family trifle (500g iirc) or a pack of biscuits in one sitting.

I don't bother calorie counting but I do record weight first thing every day, accepting that a day's reading may be out due to water fluctuation. The problem with weekly weighing is that you might get one of those fluid level fluctuations on the day you record and that would throw you.

Some insurance charts I've got say I should be 10 1/2 - 11 stone Shocked, 6` small boned. But when I was 12 stone years ago people said I looked too thin. 13 I'll be happy with but I'm going for 12 and then putting some back on as muscle.

I do suspect it will be harder now I'm a bit older. Time will tell, but it's something I really need to try.

I got the comments about looking too thin. But I think my skin had stretched so it doesn't look so great deflated Happy

Go for it Cider. I recommend natural foods over processed foods, they fill you better. And imo diet foods are junk – “low fat” are high sugar and “low sugar” are high fat, and if not they don’t fill you anyway.

A regular meal for me is a boiled potato (3 mins chopped up in a pressure cooker), tomato, 80g tin of tuna in olive oil, and either peas or a pear or  a kiwi. All chopped up and mixed so the olive oil gets everywhere. Ideally I’d have fresh fish instead of processed, but the tin is convenient and small without seeming that small.

A regular filling drink is 2 apples (or other fruit) with semi-skimmed milk in a mixer.
