Good luck for that too! I'm doing things on the cheap this time so I'm just calorie counting using MyFitnessPal.

Just replied to your other post before I saw this one. Don't be put off if your weight loss is slower than you were hoping for as your body goes into shock mode when you start exercising and can retain water. Take your measurements and hopefully that will spur you on if you don't see it reflected by the scales. SW is great so I'm sure you'll be fine. Good luck with your first weight in tomorrow.

Well done! As someone else said don't be too concerned if your weight goes up before it goes down! I put on a few pounds in the first weeks but have since lost half a stone and graduated just before New Year so that was with a few Christmas goodies too ;)

Welcome to the forum, any question just ask, good luck with the programme, and keep us posted!
