I've not counted anything and have gone from 113kg to 80kg in about 15 months. I've been really pleased with that, I only have about 8 to lose.

But years of dieting mean I know the calorie count of every food known to modern man, and by rough guessing I've eaten 1500 to 1800 a day on average - which seems to be a lot for a female but its done me fine. I do run a lot though.

However the last bit isnt budging, there does come atime when its absolutely necessary!
