    New Year Weight Loss motivation thread

    Last year I started it at 19.5 stone, then lost 2.5 stone, then at Christmas put on 4lb and now lost that, I plan to loose another 2 stone this year to get down to 15 stone. I'm doing it with the wife so just got to avoid the pop and sweets. The problem is that my clothes are not fitting correctly.
