New to this but it looks a terrific motivator, there are some real inspirations on here. Day 1 of week 1 and aiming to release myself of 14lbs!! Upping my activity and going for a walk at lunch.

Welcome! It certainly is a great motivator and also a support for when things aren't so great. Are you going to follow the NHS 12 week plan? Enjoy your lunchtime walk :)

Good luck! Take a moment to remember your motivation so you can pull on that when you have tough days later down the line.

WELCOME!!

I've been here almost a week and it really is so beneficial coming onto this forum, I come on at least everyday for a while (I WOULD REALLY LOVE AN APP).

Everyone is so supportive and it's also reassuring knowing that you're not alone in this!

We're all hear for each other to share, advice and support! You will love it <3

Thanks for the warm welcome and advice everyone :) this is what has drawn me to the site, lots of ideas, tips and just that extra boost when things are getting tough. Great walk and yes starting the NHS 12 week plan.

I just joined too, I read loads of people's lunch suggestions to someone and thought "Wow, how can any of you guys be overweight with what you eat?" I checked my calories for the day today and they will be a massive 2097, I don't even consider myself a big eater or an unhealthy eater, if you are someone that can adopt these lunch suggestions then you are a super human Newbie!. I think I may need to take up serious exercise instead this all sounds like some form of modern day torture to me, good luck Newbie!. Sophie.

Because we haven't always eaten like that and because later in the day we are stuffing chocolate down our necks!!

Welcome.!
