Great piece in the Scotsman about Shauna Reid who writes the Dietgirl blog and who has lost over half her body weight (nearly 200 lbs).

I've read a lot of diet blogs in my time but this one is one of the best - inspirational, personal, often funny - you want this girl to succeed. And she is succeeding while being a thoroughly normal 100% fallible human being like the rest of us. Read the article and be inspired...

"Now I love to do all the little things that used to make me nauseous with fear. I go to rock concerts, I run in the park, I talk to strangers in a bar, and I eat a chocolate bar in public if I feel like it. I even jumped on a plane. Losing weight has been such a gruelling effort that now I am less fazed by life's other challenges. Bring it on, I say!"
