Well done! 

I am amazed at how you have kept to your goals and reached them with all the stress you have been through. Congratulations Serenitydee! I am wondering if you are really 90 years old? I have read all your blogs and you mentioned it several times so just curious. Also wondering how tall are you? You focus on the bmi scale and how it's possible that the government's scale may be wrong. There is so much wrong with the dietary recommendations which confuses me and others. Do you subscribe to the low carb high fat way of eating e.g. keto? I know that's a few personal questions,but I am going to try again to follow in your footsteps and would appreciate your help and advice. Thanks in advance. Anne x 😀 

Ann I'm 55. Not sure where the 90 comes from. 5 ft 2. I do med to low carb, above average protein and medium fats. Not high fats. I don't eat processed meats and steer clear of nitrates and sulphites as well as hidden sugars, so no low fat foods. 

Excellent. Thanks. I am 65 and 5'7" and have struggled with weight since motherhood in my mid thirties. Lost 17kg but last year or so it's been more upward than down and sideways than forward.  

Well my weight loss was all without exercise which is a bit sad. So it was all diet. My doctor said I wouldnt be able to do it as post menopause and recimmended a low fat diet. I'd been trying that for years and it didn't work. Why? Because of the hidden sugars in low fat foods needed to preserve them. So after I had to have an operation in October 2016 and was stuck laying down,, I did my research. I weighed over 103 kg. i couldnt stand up to see how much though. Thats how and when I decided to try changing my way of life, not a diet. You know the rest.
