68.15kg which is 10st 10lbs and a BMI of 22.2. That's another 1 kg down since the same time last week. I think I need to start considering what I should do to stabilise my weight now as I'm not really looking to drop any lower.

That is a great BMI - well done!

Another 1.5lbs off this week, I thought it would be more because I have been totally on point with my food intake and I have begun a walking regime, gradually increasing day on day with the aim to get up to 60mins of walking every day. My muscles are letting me know about it after nearly 2 years of very little use, so there may be some water retention going on there.
How's everyone else doing?

Spicy food which is too hot. Nasty people who have no idea on your life journey but feel the need to comment and be cruel.
214.5 Down just under a pound. In the year since Diabetic, although Pre before. Have lost 2 stone 5lbs. Although very slow now hoping it will still come off.

Down another 200g and at 72kg. Very happy with that, hope to break the 72kg barrier soon... (But not necessarily next week, probably due a small increase :) )

That is great, it is going in the right direction. I have lost large amounts of weight in the past and this time, now I am diabetic, it is much, much harder.

73.4kg, sob, up from 72kg last week. Lots of issues with dawn phenomena and hypos and hypers, so maybe not totally a surprise. I guess next week is another week.

Gosh, that is so frustrating, it just goes to show how much our blood glucose affects our weight. Hopefully once your levels stabilise, the scales will drop back down again.
