    I'll join in, want to lose a stone and a half by my wedding in April - not too much :)

    Joined WW through Quidco so it only cost me £9.98 for 3 months, not too bad. Good to have access to the points information as well.

    Current weight - 10.5 stone.

    Well I'm doing well so far, ok we're only half a day in to it, but I need to keep telling myself how well I'm doing otherwise I give up.

    Have so far eaten

    1 apple
    1 butternut squash soup
    1 piece of brown buttered bread
    2 cups of tea with sweetners

    Dinner is steamed river cobbler with new potaoes, carrots, broccoli and cabbage.

    I've also been dead good and made a huge pot of low calorie red lentil and veg soup which so far tastes yum

    Hi, I hope it isn't too late to join... I have quite a bit to lose, was a WW gold member once upon a time and fell off the wagon after developing a foot injury. Anyway, I am keen to get exercising again and eating well and not spending ££ at WW meetings (and I also want to look good at my Cousin's wedding in NZ in December!) :-)

    Also wandered around town for about 3 hours earlier with a bag that got steadily heavier.
