I think we all feel a little desperate when we first start, but you have came to the right place. we are a friendly supportive forum and you will get lots of help here for you and your husband. If your after ideas on how to plan your day food wise have a look at the Daily Diary.

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.

Have a look at the Daily Diary which you can find on the Home page in Events. It is where all the members are sharing their daily plans on what they are eating and any exercise they are doing. This thread will give you some ideas on how to start.

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 today. 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.

Hello Enjoylife17 and welcome, Rose has already given you lots of advice. I'm pleased to see you are looking for a healthier way of eating and not a diet. I don't know how much you plan to loose but I would suggest that you set yourselves small achievable goals along the way with non food rewards when you reach them. It really helps. Keep posting and remember no question is a silly one, we are all learning. Good luck😊
