Good luck, Dani! We are all in it together! I have joined the same program and this forum 3 and a half weeks ago and have to tell you - it's working. The forum is really supportive, and the monday weigh-ins give an extra push to stick to the weight-loss plans. Even though life always throws spanner into the works, the forum will help you dust yourself off and start again - I know it because it helped me! I find it more difficult to ask support from people around me, from a mixture of reasons (im embarrased by my weight for start), but this forum is anonymous and very, very friendly and supportive. (Especially Lawcal who always manages to find the right words.) My fitness pal is a great free support tool, too. Best of luck again!

I have just downloaded my fitness pal and it connects to my fitbit which is good thank you Merendina for the words of encouragement we will get there. I have a fair bit of baby weight to lose and i have put it off for way too long my little boy is now 15 months.

Wow - what a coincidence - my boy is 17 months old and I am trying to shift all the baby weight too! Its hard when the nights are rough and then having very little energy in the day to keep going without the 'extra fuel'. But I have started seeking help from friends and family. We'll get there

Lets do this together! we can make sure we spur each other on and we will get there x

[merendina in reply to Dani_uk61]

Agreed! Whenever we feel like we need extra support lets ask each other and spur each other on xx

Well done on choosing the NHS 12 week plan, I think it's a great way to shed those unwanted pounds. Good luck to you.
