OK, I am really stuck. I'm pretty much adhering to all the rules of my diet but nothing is happening. Any top tips from anyone?

I'm making a public list now of the reasons why I want to be lighter. I hope I can look at this later if I feel that things are going off track, and it will pull me back onto the rails (don't you live a mixed metaphor?):

My top 5 reasons:

1. Ridiculous as it may sound, my greatest motivator – my push, my resolve - is to lighten the load for the horses I ride. I’m not particularly tall, so if I were the ‘regulation’ weight I’d be able to ride the majority of ponies and horses. But right now I can only ride large horses. And even then I am wondering ‘I wonder how heavy he finds me?’ Ha ha.
2. I want to improve my riding, and being a healthy weight is part of that. Alongside this I am undertaking dressage rider training – that I can assure you is tougher than it sounds! It is easier to be flexible and athletic if there is less of you!
3. I want to be as healthy as I can be. Obviously, we can only do our best, and ill health can strike at any moment, but we improve our odds if we eat in moderation. Moreover, my odds of getting long COVID or a serious COVID infection are dented if not extinguished by being a healthier weight.
4. I’d quite like to feel good about myself physically. Or more accurately, I would like the reflection in the mirror to match the image in my head!
5. Like most people, I want to come out of this whole pandemic feeling that I’ve done something good, and something has gone right.

This is me today. Yes, still very overweight but in a better place than I was in the first picture (metaphorically only, I'd love to be in the place called the Hague right now!). So onwards with the journey!

If I reach my target (if? When!) this is just simply a staging post, still more to go. But it will be a good moment to draw breath, and hopefully say, "haven't I done something worth doing?"

So I set off on my weightloss journey yesterday. I'm taking it fairly slow as I've already lost almost 3 stone. This is me (the one not graduating) at my very biggest. My daughter's graduation is the only moment I'd have allowed myself to be caught on camera!
