Right to the 'point'
Over the past 15 months I have lost 1 and a half stones (or 21 pounds) simply through healthy eating and increased exercise, most of which is walking.
However by about September this year I had hit a complete brick wall. Nothing was being gained but at the same time nothing was being lost either.
Always been a fat guy and I was enjoying the change I had made physically in that time as pictures of myself prove I was getting slimmer, especially at the face and neck.
So with this brick wall still there I have decided to change my plan and on monday I will commence on a meal replacement diet mostly of shakes (store own brand - Tesco if you are in the UK )
My family think I'm nuts doing it this close to Christmas but I have exams in January which I will be studying for constantly plus I figure if I can get past Christmas fine then I can get past anything.
My friends don't really know as it raises too many questions and watching eyes I find so instead of talking about it in my normal blogs I have found your site through google and look forward to telling the story of my (hopeful) weight loss.
I'm hoping for a loss of about 63 pounds. I'm very short for a guy (5'1") so that is quite a substantial amount for someone of my height.
I'll put in my starting weight on Monday in a weigh in thread, for tonight however I am going out on the booze for one last time as I plan to be completely sober during this.
Cheers for reading,

That quote is from 15th of December 2007. One year ago today. My first post here. Can't believe I have been on this site 1 whole year...where the hell has it gone?
So let's compare it all
Over the past 15 months I have lost 1 and a half stones (or 21 pounds)
Now that is a total of 62lb or about 4 and a half stone. Or about 3 stone in 12 months.
I was enjoying the change I had made physically in that time as pictures of myself prove I was getting slimmer
And comparing pictures even from this time last year to now I love doing...probably even more so! You guys may have noticed
The plan recommends 1 meal a day of up to 600 calories but I want to try it without the meal first and just an additional shake
That lasted 1 whole day...then a meal was chucked in! :8855:
My friends don't really know as it raises too many questions
Minus about 3 very close and trusted friends this remains the same.
I'm hoping for a loss of about 63 pounds.
I can't remember, but I'm assuming that meant in total from when I started on here. Giving me about 19 still to go, almost matching my ticker.
I'm very short for a guy
I'm still very short...and at 22 don't see that changing!

God I am funny aren't aye? Did I actually believe that would happen?!
Always been a fat guy
This bit I really like pointing out. As a few people have said lately - as I am now quite frank about mentioning to people I have lost weight and talking about it if people ask, except what I have done shake wise...I just say low calorie
- and a few have stated they do not see me as a fat guy anymore.It's an odd compliment, as people never say at the time you are the fat guy/girl, regardless how much you and everyone else knows it. But at the same time it is a great compliment.
So here we are. 1 year on. I'm not a student, I have accepted my receding hairline, and I'm much closer to my goal than I was 12 months ago.
So I guess I just want to thank all you lovely people for reading, commenting and being supportive.
Here's to the next 12 months!

...except me as I still dragged my carcase into work for that week of hell. In fact I did 2 hours overtime one day simply because it was raining outside and I didn't want to go in it!
