Hello Dm27 and welcome to the Weight Loss Forum
I'm afraid I don't know much about SW so can't comment on the specifics. In the many years of trying to lose weight I have finally come to the conclusion that calorie restriction is the best easy for me. I need to plan my meals and eat a wide variety to have a small but regular weight loss. If you need help with meal planning please have a look at the Daily Diary 😊
Here are a few more suggestions on how to get the most out of the forum. Please note if you are using the new HU App many of these features are not available so I suggest you use the full website version.
The first place to look is at the Pinned posts section to the right of your screen (bottom if you're using a mobile), read the Welcome Newbie thread first and move through to the challenges, where we hope you'll find at least one that will appeal to you. Move down to the Topics, to find a variety of threads, collated into specific topics for ease of access and we ask that you also 'file' your own threads, so that others won't miss your important news
Have a look at the NHS 12 week plan, as many people have had success with it. Also use the BMI checker to find your target calories, it's important to eat enough. This was a major turning point for me, realising I could eat anything I wanted as long as the calories are accounted for. Don't forget to take your starting measurements and a 'before' picture, as they can be very motivating on days that the scales refuse to co-operate
The forum also have group weigh-ins every day, as well as a new Daily Diary, if you wish to take part. The posts can always be found in the Events section on the 'home' page. And if you just want to chat, to say hello or share any news or struggles then look out for What's Happening Today thread.
You'll notice a grey box next to people's names, these are achievement badges, and as a new member you have a 'Newbie' badge. We've found that to get the best out of this community, we need to be active on the forum, as it's where we exchange information, get motivation and inspiration and make friends. We hope that you'll join us here, regularly, too. If you have any questions please just ask
Best wishes
Anna
Hi and welcome Dm27 
You will receive lots of advice and friendly support here and are never on your own, as we are all going through the same journey
Wishing you all the best. You can do this
Instead of following diets that are restrictive, opt to start eating healthy, nourishing and satiating meals, one meal at a time, one day at a time. Once you are adjusted and comfortable, as advised by the Admin above, get to know your daily target calories suitable for your lifestyle and work with it. Soon the weight will drop off. Also try and avoid processed foods as much as you can. You can definitely do it! Keep logging in here and read inspiring posts and tips from the awesome members. All the best in your journey.
