Thanks Lytham. I would like to join the Summer Challenge - but can't figure out how to do it! Help!! My pledge is to lose 14lbs by beginning of July, to walk 10,000 steps a day and to go swimming twice a week.
Whoop whoop , you are the 200th person to join up!!
Just click on the blue link below and it will take you to the challenge, then just click on reply and reply to me.
You can join a weigh in to monitor your weight but the 10,000 steps and swimming is a great pledge for the challenge, see you there!

Hi Mouse2001, Very best of luck with NHS Healthy Choices, I am just starting week twelve on Monday, it has been life changing. I log on to the Daily Diary and plan my food and execise for the day. The members have been really supportive and kind, sharing their knowledge and helping me change what I eat for the better.
Thanks for your message Hopalong. It's already feeling good to be part of an encouraging community. I've planned my exercise for tomorrow already. I have to go to feed my son's cat - so I'll have a good walk to catch the bus. I'l measure my steps on my phone - aiming for 10,000
