Hi Donnac58,
Well done for posting, especially as you're feeling a bit nervous about it. It can be daunting when you get on the scales for the first time in a while, can't it. But this is a really supportive forum, and I hope you'll enjoy being here and that you'll feel supported and encouraged with your weight loss journey. Do have a read of our Welcome Newbie post, which is in the Pinned Posts area - top right-hand-side of the homepage. It's got some very inspiring contributions from forum members, and was collated by moreless .
Maybe join in with our Monday group weigh-in sessions if you like the idea of a weekly weigh-in. It can really help keep on track and accountable. I'd recommend the NHS 12 week plan as a great structure with lots of helpful tips and advice. Many of us use a calorie tracker - e.g. Myfitnesspal or something similar to help keep track of calories and exercise.
Anyway, I would like to wish you all the best with your goals, and I hope to see you around and about in the forum.

Welcome Donnac58 you have made that first difficult step of being accountable 😆
You now have all the lovely help and motivation from this fantastic forum and you can succeed.
Zest has given you some great information and I would recommend you get involved as much as you can it's helped me lose nearly 2stone in 19wks and it will help you.
Good luck. Claire x
