Newbie here :)

Hi everyone, I've just downloaded the 12 week plan after failing to do my own plans well, I thought something you could actually write on and follow the guidelines would be more motivational than what's in my head! Looking forward to joining in, and hoping I can get to grips with the message/posting system asap!

Well done on your first post!

Great that you are doing the 12 week plan. It really works if you stick to your calorie limit. Try downloading the free myfitnesspal ap too as that will do all the work of counting calories for you.

There is a weigh in on Mondays - just have a look at the pinned posts on the right hand side for details of that.

Good luck!

Hi and welcome!

I too am a newbie, joined last week, and can't even begin to tell you how much better I feel about my weight loss/journey to health already. I've got between five and six stone to lose, and have had some great advice and support already. It's a fantastic forum and everyone here is in a similar boat.

Did my first Monday weigh in yesterday, looking forward to seeing you over there when you feel ready!

Good luck, anything is possible if we put our minds to it! X
