Amazing work all.
I've basically achieved my goal which was get under 14 stone. Am currently just about there after hovering annoying on the cusp for weeeeeks. Having got there, my current pattern tends to be get within striking of the goal distance by Friday, then take my foot off the gas and celebrate by reverting to treating myself at the weekend (I don't go mad - just relax the regime a bit). Then I don't weigh myself for a couple of days whilst exercising strict observation. I'll weigh myself on Weds and find that I'm back where I was by the end of the previous week... Hooray! I then either repeat the pattern or put in a couple more strict days and shed another few hundred grams.
Currently 13/13 or ~88.5kg down from almost 100kg in August. Still really enjoying clothes fitting and looking and feeling so much better.
I do think I need a new goal, and to start working on getting some muscle back. I think 85kg with some improved fitness and muscle definition by Easter should be eminently achievable. Even allowing for The Porkening that inevitably blights/brightens December.
