    Thanks Lubo, so how does this work do I set myself a target and tell you when I get to it or is there a specific weigh in day when you post your weight loss?

    .... there is a 5lb monthly challenge which you could join. Most folks designate a weighing day and report the week's loss/gain.

    As has already been said, don't set an ultimate target if you have a fair bit to lose, rather set yourself yourself your 'next' interim target. As you get closer to the point, it will become clearer what your ultimate target would be. If you set it too early, it's like trying to walk to the sun.

    .... yup! Get one (or more) of those new reduced sugar/low calorie jelly mixes and make them up in ice cube trays. Hey presto, lots and lots of raspberry/strawberry/orange jelly treats for less than a quid (and from what I've read, you could do with a way to save a few quid ;) ). No, seriously, all the best for your battle.... we can all miss a clause in the excitement to help a friend. I hope it works out in your favour.
  • Hi everyone,

    Does anyone mind if I post my (intended) progress on here? I am going to start following the WW plan from now and will weigh-in every Saturday. I have followed SW in the past fairly successfully but never tried WW, until now.

    I would like to lose 6 stones overall, but my first target will be 7lbs.

    ....errrm not really, nothing that you don't already know anyway. There are people on this site who have lost much, much more than me and I'm sure they will agree that it's not rocket science, you just have to be appropriately strict. If you are going to do it then do it, don't pay lip service to it.
