I used to really love full fat milk, I'd have had green top unpasteurised if I could've still got it! Then Sal made me change to semi We get Cravendale now and it's actually quite nice!

I have lost 2 stone a couple of times in the last few years:

Atkins - dont try this - rapid weight loss but screws your insides up.
Reduced calories, cut out snacks, crisps & sweets and every night I used the exercise bike. If I was watching TV, I would ride the bike through the show - or play the Playstation while doing it - really takes the boredom out of doing it. The weight dropped off.

There really is no magic bullet NotRev. My doctor when asked how to lose weight when he diplomatically mentioned that I was a bit "big" said that I should not eat so much food! That simple.

I have just lost over a stone by eating less. Had to be a bit iron willed to do it. Obviously picking the less fattening food helps but I think it is not so much what but more how much you eat as long as it is all done with a bit of common sense.

As for the diet I'd cut out bread as much as you can. full of carbs you don't need in an office job.

breakfast... scrabbled eggs with plum toms or small tin of beans.

lunch. cook stuff on a night to bring in. chicken with some rice. get rid of the sarnies. eating crisps is just being fat. no need for any snack sort of food.

evening meal. ditch the take aways and get cooking a decent meal with fish or chicken and veg.

You're fat because you're lazy in your approach to food and exercise. It's about changing your mentality to it. Once you do and see some results you will gain massive motivation from it and wonder why you were how you are now.

Some good points there, the main thing is mentatility and motivation, the first couple of weeks is the hardest then once you see results that alone will motivate you, dont get me wrong you can have the odd bad thing - especially if your not that overweight, if you want a pizza on a saturday night or a curry go for it, just dont eat crap morning, noon and night. i.e. dont have a whopping brekkie with half a loaf on a Sunday morning, a sunday
pub lunch then a curry at night - thats asking for trouble.

Ok : gym twice a week, 5k runs. Then I cycle in the local hills for an hour at the weekend.

I eat what I fancy, but have made a (slight) effort to cut down on mid week drinking. 6'2" and just under 14 stone.

Am doing my best to stop snacking on fun sized mars bars after 10pm !!
