Hi there Grainne
Its a support network really, giving you help, advice, tips and as you have already seen - recipes too. Its fab and has really helped me and 1000's like me too. If you are doing SW, join a challenge and look at starting a diary (you will find this on the sw forum), that way you will make new friends on here and like minded people will visit and advise you too. Good luck and Congratulations on the wedding next year, you'll find that you will give yourself a better kick at the plan on here too.. and welcome to Minimins.

PS, we have a really good support group on here, "From here to Eternally Slim" feel free to come and say hi and get some extra advice, we have lots of members and every one of them is invaluble. x
