It's just about New Year's and I'm doin' it!
This year, I was in the hospital for about 10 days because I was bleeding out from an ulcer (I had a few more hours up to a day left before it was mortal, so not THAT close, but still). I also had a polyp in my colon that the doctor said was in the last stage before it would have become cancerous. And a fatty liver that was on the borderline for fibrosis --> cirrhosis. I was at that time 115 kg (252 lbs at 5'11").
Well, a lot of salads (juicy ones with lots of tomatoes, cottage cheese, balsamic vinegar with olive oil and basil, pretty yummy actually), a complete lack of pasta, rice and bread, and hundreds of kms walked, I'm now at 102kg-- and the funny thing is even despite the harsh calorie deficit, I feel more energetic than before. My doctor said that the liver issue is very much improved, and I'm pretty sure I can get under 100kg (my goal) by the new year. That will be 33 lbs worth of blood and sweat left on the hiking trails in 2018!
Thanks to you guys in this thread, because seeing people succeed with their weight loss was a real motivation for me. Thanks for setting a good example!
