What's your weight loss experience?

This is obviously directed to those who have already lost weight.

Although there many times I've attempted to lose weight, I've been successful with major loss three times.

For some reason I've managed to enter cycle #4: I'm 5' 10" and on New Years weighed a gut-popping 215

I've now turned into a calorie-counting fanatic and have gotten my weight down to 205 or so. My target is 185. I could stand to lose even more but in the past going much below 185 elicits comments about what kind of chemotherapy I'm on or when will the divorce be final.

I'm hoping that I will notice a big difference, especially when approaching my bete noir: the Evil Forces of Gravity, aka hills.

I'm not interested in racing but I think this is the year I need to conquer the 100 mile (in one day )
mark.

Any thoughts? There's a thread on the 41 about this topic but I never believe much of what anyone says over here. I can trust my testosterone-depleted friends over here, except for two of you.
