Hello another newby here

[Jax15]

Tried on my work trousers and either they have shrunk or I've grown. But who am I kidding, I've just got wider. But it is time to take control of my eating. I no longer want to live to eat but eat to live. It's a new start to eating healthy. So for all the newbies lets do this together for ourselves.

Welcome to the group. Its a really great forum good luck

Welcome, you made a good move. NHS will teach you how to make healthy choices. I love my food and it is the only program that is teaching me how to incorporate what I like with good habits. As you go along you will slowly feel "normal" and loving it. Take it easy, appreciate every week, immerse yourself in it and you will be a winner.

Once the weight starts to burn off you'll see it works One week at a time will be another lb off at least. It's the start of the real YOU. Welcome to the group!

Welcome, I hope you find what you need in this community. Start by dowloading an app on your phone to keep track of calories (Fat Secret, My Fitness Pal...), it's a great aid! Good luck!

This is my first week too. I am finding this forum so motivating. People always reply to you with good advice. I got fed up with the waistband digging in too. Good luck.
