Hi Loopylu
12 st 12 is the weight I am at now, I am doing SW also, it is a good plan
my tips are....follow it to the rule, write everything down to keep track, and also try to plan ahead, and if you have any slip-ups, don't worry just carry on, it will work out in the end.

thank you for the tips, i am writing everything down at the moment but i am finding the food diaries a little confusing how would my consultant know if im having the right quantities (as in 1/3 speed etc) ? maybe im just over thinking it? lol
