Hi Joanne

Welcome to Wemitts, I can only echo what has already been written.


Set yourself mini goals, because those of us who have/had quite a lot of weight to lose will know, looking at the overall loss can be too overwhelming

Good Luck Joanne, you can do it :)

Hi and welcome to the forum!

I just want to offer a teeny bit of advice. I'd increase the amount of calories you're eating. In your 20's and being 29st you could easily eat 2500 calories and still lose 2lbs+ a week. If you start on 1500 eventually, you're going to have to reduce your calories and theres not a massive amount you can reduce them by...
 
Welcome!

I'm also using Cronometer for calorie counting and try to stick to a 1200-1500 calories intake. However, I'm quite convinced that the quality of what you eat is more important than the actual calories.

I look forward to reading your diary :)
 
well done jo that is brill x x x
 
Hi Jo, what a great first week for you! I am also on 1500 cals a day and have my first weigh in tomorrow - here is wishing it's similar to yours.... Kx
 
Sorry not posted here much lately, week 5 weigh in today and lost 2.5lbs which i am pleased with as we went out at the weekend so deffo went over my calories that day.

That takes me to 1st 7lb lost in 5 weeks
 
Wow that's excellent. Big well done. I also have alot of weight to lose so will look forward to following your journey xx
 
well done jo on the loss
 
That's really great going - well done!
