Hello and welcome, as someone in the same boat, I can empathize 😀 I was a member of SW for years and didn't lose any significant amount of weight, I decided at the beginning of the year to use the money from SW Fees and join the gym, I was going 3 times a week and then lockdown!! Put around 9lbs on,had a recurring issue with indigestion, spoke with Dr and gave head a wobble. I'm following the NHS 12 week plan and found this forum as a result.

Its fabulous, there's so much support. My tips would be join the groups, particularly Daily Diary and Wednesday's weigh in.

The best of luck and you've made the first step and that's always the hardest, it gets easier from here x😀

Oh thank you, that’s almost where I was and as our diet isn’t massively‘bought’ food I only lost half a pound at the sw first week. I cried! I had a knee issue since I moved 2 years ago, muscular almost sorted. So I’m doing keep fit tapes at home and walking.

All the best to you too

Same! I’ve found consuming less acidic food helps with indigestion?
