Morning everyone
I'm starting out today after an unsuccessful try at a different diet plan that just wasn't working for me . I have 29lb to lose to get into a healthy weight bracket if tried calorie counting before but gave up as I wasn't committed enough to it but this time I need to give it 100%.
Looking for some friends on here to motivate each other along the way, feel free to add me.

    Bit nervous about doing it and not losing anything and being destined to stay overweight.

    If you're consistently in a calorie deficit over time, then you will lose weight.

    You've already tackled the biggest thing people are most often most nervous about- sharing with others. Now just keep trying, know you won't be perfect, and remember there is a community and we're all here for the same reason. Nothing to be nervous about - you're going to see change!
