Hello and welcome to the Weight Loss Forum CJuli

Well done on taking the first step to a heather you, I’m not a fan of SW either, I like to include some good healthy fat in my diet for balanced nutrition and keeping me full. You’ve already made a good start, but please make sure you’re eating enough by checking the NHS BMI checker for you own personal calorie target.

We have found that active participation is key to success, especially the Group Weigh In and Daily Diary. Please see today’s Chat Thread with a list of all the things happening on the forum healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh...

If you haven’t already then please read the Welcome post here healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh... please read it carefully and just ask if you have any questions.

Well done, you have had a good start, which shows you are determined. This forum is fantastic and the more you post the more you get from it. It’s full of support and advice, everyone is different and we all lose weight differently. I have tried SW and WW but only to put it all back on again. However being on this forum it has led me to lchf way of eating, not a diet but changing the food I eat and when I eat. It has been great for me and much healthier than other diets I have tried. Good luck and keep posting.
