Loosing weight can be really hard. I am 70 and need to loose at least 2 stone. I try not to look at chocolate or sweets. Fruit is better for you so I have a bowl of grapes handy in case I feel I want something sweet. Walking is a new hobby.

Hi dack :)

Be careful, fruit contains a lot of sugar, especially grapes, you're better to eat berries phcuk.org/wp-content/upload...

Hi, dack I am 70 next month, and I have just lost 3½ stone.

Do you have a history of failed attempts to lose weight?

Yes, discipline helps.

Fruit is good for you but contains sugar, which makes you hungry. ... so I have fruit with breakfast - so it makes me hungry for lunch!

I was disabled when I started to lose weight, but I now walk 25 to 40km a week.

Are you doing the Low-Carbohydrate High-Fat diet or Not Eating All Day (AKA Intermittent fasting), see:

healthunlocked.com/fasting-...

I decided I wanted to lose a pound a week, put my weekly target weights in my diary (six months ahead) and made it happen.

Any queries ...please get back to me.
