A few people have asked me where they can read the Dominion Post article about Darryn.

Here's the link to the online version

Mel, thanks for that link. What an amazing story and well done to Darryn and you. That is such a huge effort and you guys really deserve the benefits that you are reaping. I forwarded the link onto my DH who is trying really hard and has so far lost 12kg, and feeling a bit lost at the moment.

What an inspirational article - and good on you both for doing so well. It's definitely got to be a mindset/lifestyle thing doesn't it? I started to do something about my weight earlier this year and having the right attitude made it so much easier. You have to have that long term view combined with celebrating the short term acheivements in order to be successful. It's amazing what even a few kgs loss can do for your energy levels.

I was interested in the low carb aspect mentioned in the article as that approach has worked for me too.

Keep up the good work both of you.
