I could lose a stone if I’m honest, and was with you all untill someone mentioned knocking off the ale… 
I live on a diet of caffein and nicotine. Never been over weight, but am bound to snuff it early
Just do what makes you happy 
On the fruit thing, it’s fructose, unless you eat masses of the stuff it’s not going to make you fat, it’s healthy stuff so eat it! There’s three portions in my average day along with around 5-6 of veggies and I’m losing weight.
You’d be surprised how much sugar/calories you can consume with fruit. If you eat more calories than you burn with exercise, you are likely to gain weight, so even if the calories are coming from healthy, nutritious sources such as fruit, they can still contribute to weight gain.
Based on the five-a-day (which could well be a load of ■■■■■■■■) then you should be looking at 2 fruit/3 veg servings. Your mix of 5-6 veg and 3 fruits is a good ratio. You wouldn’t want to try it the other way around though.

At 1 meal every other day you will lose weight, think I would want to lose more than that.
Problem will be keeping it off when you start eating properly again
Check out the Atkins diet.wife is type. 2diabetic went on Atkins ,blood sugar Regulated and lost weight.
was suffering with the typical drivers gut for a while, signed up for a 12 week nutrition and exercise plan (1 hour a week) and lost just under 2 stones, its NOT a diet, but a change in your eating habits
went cold turkey for 2 weeks, gave up Tea, coffee, sugar, alcohol, fizzy pop, dairy products, rice, pasta, potato, bread, cakes, biscuits etc,
poached eggs & smoked salmon, chicken and veg, berries and goats yoghurt a typical days diet, plus 2x litres of water a day
after 2 weeks, could add sweet potato & nuts etc, but only in small portions.
certain fruits are high in natural sugars, so a punnet of grapes, might sound healthy…too much fructose

A bit like me, except
I cut out bread, potatoes,crisps and beer all week. I also walk at least a mile a day.
I then try Eating healthy, but at the weekend I’ll have
2/4 pints over the weekend with a take away sat night and a roast on Sunday and that keeps my weight at steady pace. If I’m aiming to lose weight I’ll cut out the beer and bread over the weekend as well, but when your doing your bit all week, you need a bit of luxury at the weekend otherwise it gets abit tedious and boring.

no disrespect meant villa and each to their own and all that,but curry,vile and disgusting,don’t know how anyone could eat curry,i said to my brother years ago how he could eat curry because of the smell,he replied what about the smell you make when you eat baked beans,fair point I thought
Been doing Slimming World for last 11 months lost 3 stones by eating more veg and fish,don’t do many exercises but feel loads better and my diabetes has gone.
One of the worse things for putting weight on is carbs in food. If you are not exercising and not using up the stored energy that carbohydrates gives you then it just stores as fat. Don’t cut out carbs completely but a low carb diet may help such as eating less bread, pasta and rice.

Curry is the most popular dish in Britain , walk down any high street at night and you will see Indian restaurants packed with white English people
