Right, am starting with the oversharing as I think I need a public log to force me to actually do this.
I weighed in a range of 75-80kgs back in 2008 when I was in pretty good shape, before a bunch of stupid injuries took me off the bike but didn't stop me eating.
I was about 110kg after my knee ops a few years back. I managed to get down to 90-95kg within about 9 months but have mostly plateaued there ever since. Managed to get down to about 85kg in late 2015, but some personal stuff went off the rails just before that Christmas, so I put it all back on and more in a couple of months of self-indulgent bingeing. Which was of course a really smart move.
I'm aiming to get back to my 75-80kg range by the end of the summer. I doubt I'll make it before LEL, but equally I wouldn't mind lugging 15kg less weight to Edinburgh and back.
Plus I've promised myself that I'm not allowed to spend money buying the shiny new bike I've been lusting after that's maybe 2kg lighter than my current steed when I can shed far more weight by eating better and riding more.
Anyway, today's 91.2kg.
