I'm gonna make it. In fact, I just set a new goal for myself to reach 85 kilo before we go! It's amazing what a difference can be had by eating 200-300 calorie meals instead of 2000 calorie meals, and not eating at all between meals. On the weekends I treat myself to one 'fat' dinner, and have a big bowl of popcorn while watching TV Saturday and Sunday night. I'm not real strong on self-denial, but I do have a strong desire to reach any goals that I set for myself.
I'm walking at least 5 kilometers a day carrying heavy camera gear too, but I'm walking slow. I've discovered that if I walk fast my knees won't last 200 meters, but if I just 'stroll along' slowly I can keep on truckin'!
There is a 'downside' to this though. I'm going to have to buy a new wet suit and BCD....

Congrats!!!
As someone that has dropped 50 pounds and has had to do more then one cycle of "gain back and loose again" I would say this... be careful. Weight loss can be come addicting.
