Hi and welcome to the weight loss forum.. May I suggest that you follow all the links you've been sent in your welcome package It's best to use the website as opposed to the app.

I hope you join the Daily Diary, there's lots of delicious ideas there. When you have decided your “weigh in day”, join one of the weekly weigh ins.

If you are counting calories please run your data through the NHS site, to calculate your BMI and with that obtain your calorie allowance.

Good luck with your weight loss journey.🍀

I think there’s adverts for the 12 week plan in line with the Governments tackling obesity campaign. I caught the end of a similar one on the TV.

I heard an advert on radio whilst driving to work

I've seen two references to ads now, but haven't seen or heard them. I assume this is the Government initiative and they are promoting the 12 week plan?
