I have perforated my belt to add an additional hole! my clothes don't fit they are becoming over-sized! I am generally feeling happier. I am at 100kgs but with the same level of activity and intake control I will hit 80kgs in 2-3 months.
Sorry brazza @masukuma, I would like to introduce you to one small reality; weight loss is rapid at first, the first 10 kg sort of disappear, then you body goes 'oooooooh', like it is conspiring against you, it adapts and then you hit a plateau. Losing half a kilo takes weeks. You need to know that this point is coming and it is where many give up, dejected. Try not to. Eventually the kilos come down but after a long slog. To survive, you need to enjoy exercise, ingrain it into your life so that it becomes a habit of life and not a goal to be met.
