Hi all

Great forum!

Started doing weight watchers earlier this month ...the old point system. Finding it ok and losing, so am happy

Always used to be around 7.5 stone, even after babies ...many moons ago .... and would like to get close to that again. Have never dieted before so new to watching what I eat ...has been an eye opener! But feeling great that it's coming off. Looking forward to feeling healthier

Thanks everyone!

Serena, starting weight was 9st 4lb, so it's going in the right direction. I think the main thing about doing this has been the awareness of exactly how many calories are in what I eat! I've always eaten fairly healthy, home cooked food and not a overly fond of sweet stuff ...Quit smoking about 10 weeks ago so think that has been a factor in the pounds piling on too. Hope to keep shifting them though
This forum is excellent for recipes, tips and obviously full of lovely people.

Did a 1 mile walk this morning too .... in front of the laptop lol Leslie sansones miracle mile i think it's called ....got it on you tube if anyones interested. It's good for when you can't get outside.
