hi - been on this since Monday and lost 9lb, so so pleased, am 52, and have had two years pretty much of surgery, so have reached the heaviest ever. Feeling really motivated and so pleased to have found this app as I don't have money to join a slimming club. need to lose at least 3 stone so all good so far. 1200 cals per day is quite ok for me, and it is really motivating to be able to put in my weight and exercise . hope everyone else is doing ok

Hi Toryp63 - you're doing great! Just wanted to let you know that it's very very normal to lose weight rapidly at first and then slow down to a steadier loss of 2 to 1/2 pounds per week. When that happens, just know that you are STILL doing great.
Welcome to MFP! :flowerforyou:
