Hiya welcome. It's a 12 week weight loss guide provided on the NHS website which helps you to pan and monitor your calory intake and provides useful information about what to eat and how to exercise. Check out the following link. You should be able to download the document there. Good luck

Hi Bluexbaby, Been to my Tai Chi class today and came home to have the recommended number of calories for dinner. Am trying not to feel hungry ! Bedtime seems a long way off and I have only 100 calories left for today. Ouch.

I have a piece of fruit if I need it at night or water sometime takes the pang away ,, dont go hungry it takes time to get into the habit of change good luckx

[Autumn-Witch in reply to bluexbaby]

The fruit sounds like a good idea. I probably won't sleep if I go to bed feeling hungry. I'm determined to try anything. I have to lose a minimum of two and a half stone to get my BMI in the normal zone. And today is only day one

Well I am the same got the onset of angina and a hip problem plus the fact my age makes it harder to lose.....

also got the mini pack of raisins in asda think thers 12 in the packet I carry them with me when I am out handy if I feel peckish I tried to hard to start but now I am taking each day at a time .....

Hi Bluexbaby, Took your tip and got some raisins. They are lovely and chewy and really do help. It's hard to be at home with the fridge looking at me every time I go into the kitchen but I think I shall get to the end of day 2 without giving in to temptation. I can't help wondering whether the stress of trying to follow the diet might send my blood pressure sky high!
