Hi this is Ewan from London, i am currently 12st 10.6lb (my scale is bit funny its 3 pounds -+)...
i work for JP Morgan bank and my job involves standing and lots of walking, if not working i TRY to go for swimming..or a walk..but i'll be honest i am not very active and my bed and sofa hates me for that
i am 5.7" and according to my BMI i am over weight my ideal or my target is 10st 3.3lb..i am 27 years healthy male..
i have started my weight loss from 25th July.. in the start i was eating 1200 calories a day but now its 1300+ calories everyday..
I will need all your support and motivation
Thanks

Good news you don't have too much to lose so if I were you i'd be getting more active.
Also rememebr that if you're using BMI as a guide it's not strictly accurate (in my opinion). I for example have broad shoulders and a naturally big rib cage it says my top end health weight is 12st - I will aim for this but I honestly cannot see that happening.
Swimming is great but you should try and add some strength training in with it. More muscle = high metabolism.
You can do it tho - easy! I'm a little taller,one year older and i've lost 5.5 stone so far this year.
Take care,
