Welcome to the forum. Look at the NHS bmi index and this will tell you how many calories you should be eating every day. It gives two amounts that you can eat between e.g 1456 -1856 and you need to eat anything between this amount of calories and you will be able to lose weight. Don't eat less though as it is not good to do this. The NHS bmi also tells you what your weight should be. Read the Welcome Newbies pinned post that is on the right hand side or if you are using a mobile it is at the bottom of the page and have a good look around the site. If you need to ask any questions please make sure you do, as questions do always get answered and people are really friendly on here. Good luck with your weight loss
We also do weigh ins Monday -Saturday but unfortunately Monday and Tuesday are fully booked so you won't be able to join this but you can join any day between Wednesday - Saturday. Don't worry if you don't lose weight one week everybody has bad weeks but still log in your weight and others will make you feel better and keep you going.
