Hi Buffin,

Welcome to the Weight Loss NHS forum.  Great that you're staring the NhS 12 week programme - and I wanted to give you some links that might be helpful - I know you're feeling both excited and also fearful, so hopefully the links will help a little with the latter!  

The first is a link to our Welcome Newbie thread, which moreless  has put together:

The second link is incase you might be interested in a weekly weigh-in group - just have a read and see what you think, and if you fancy joining in, then please do - you'd be very welcome!

Wishing you a great first week!

Welcome!!  

Have no fear! Go for what you want and you will get it  

Don't give up, it will only make you feel bad about yourself  

Best of luck!! <3

I started today too. i am at the end of 6 week viral infection, and have been so innactive lately, but because i knew i was starting today, i stuffed my face yesterday to get rid of chocolate etc. and i was out early for a walk along the canal, wind blowing, it was lovely and made me feel so good.

I have actually taken the long mirror off the hall wall to put in my bathroom, so when i get dressed, take a shower, i can see how big i have become, that is an incentive. That is what prompted me to do something. i have also been looking at fotos of me 6 years ago when i was an ok weight, to spur me on, but it is health that is getting to me, colds stay with me longer now, and this infection has too, and i think it is because i am overweight, my body cannot fight illness when it has to work so hard to do normal daily things. So, no fear, take it one day at a time, and if you blip, put it behind you and carry on regardless. good luck, see you next week.

good luck,I'm really unfit too and found tonight's exercise really hard. I'm inspired by your motivation x

thank you all, did first run/ walk tonight, nearly killed me, more walk than running! But its a start, hope gets better soon!

If it's any consolation, I did the first walk/run in week 2 and yes, it nearly killed me too!! The worst bit was tripping off a kerb, cutting my knee and ripping my trousers - not a happy bunny....
