Hi there. 4 weeks into slimming world (with a touch of calorie counting) and 8.5llb off so far. What daily calorie intake do you aim for?

Check out the bmi calculator on nhs, answer the questions and it will give you a calorie range for your weight/height etc xx

Morning pinkicepop

Welcome to the weight loss forum.

Take a look at the Welcome Newbie post in the Pinned post section at the right hand side or at the bottom if your on a mobile. Have a look at the nhs 12 week plan, many members have had success following this plan. Use the BMI checker to work out your daily calorie allowance.

Below the Pinned posts are the Topics where members share a range of weight related subjects.

Take your measurements at the start together with a photo so you can see the changes on the days the scales don't move.

We have daily weigh ins so why not come along and join us. You can find the weigh ins on the Home page in the Events section on the right. Just click on the post in Events and record your start weight and any loss/gain or maintain for the week.

To get the most of the forum be active, share tips, recipes and experiences. Read some of the posts they are very motivating.

Have a good first week.

Hello Pinkicepop and welcome to the forum. Ive been losing weight since Christmas with just healthy eating, but it's been very very slow, so last week I started calorie counting, aiming for around 1500, just added up last weeks totals and it averages at 1450 a day. This still won't be a fast loss but I'm hoping to see the scales move every couple of weeks rather than every three or four weeks. Good luck to you 😀
