Hi all,

Am keen to hear from any of you ladies who have firsthand experience with really successful weightloss. What actually worked? There are so many systems, products and philosophies out there that it gets a bit overwhelming. I find it hard to commit and follow through with any because I'm not 100% convinced it will work.

Generally I'm really attracted to all things natural. So paleo / no sugar / vegetarianism & veganism tend to appeal to me rather than "eat this lump of chemicals for 26 weeks and you'll lose weight".

And how have you found exercise to relate to weight loss? I'm not convinced you need to go hard for 60 minutes a day to shift kilos. But then I'm not exactly skinny so what would I know!
