Weighed myself over the weekend. My previous best-guess at my weight was 120kg, from 4 years ago.
Present weight: 95kg!!
I'm no longer medically obese - just overweight, and I'm on the correct-weight side of the overweight band. My target - reach 85kg in 50 days - is much more achievable in light of this, which is awesome. My daily calorie intake can finally rise above 1000cal/day; having it below that has been worrying a number of people.
After Christmas, I'll hopefully have the cash to get the exercise kit I want - a copy of Dancing Stage Megamix for the 360, plus dance mat - and will bring my exercise level from 'sedentary' up to 'active,' which should accelerate the loss. Dancing plus drumming in Rock Band ought to provide the kind of exercise I want, which is aerobic (for losing weight) and upper body workout (for increasing strength and muscle tone). Plus of course I get Achievements and Gamerpoints for it :D
