Hi all

Thought I would introduce myself and see if anyone wanted to add me for support ?

Im 28 , 4ft 11 and have a stone to loose . Ive been a yo yo dieter for years ! Focused mainly on slimmingworld the last 18months but now changing to calorie counting as I can't get to grips with portion control .

If anyone could share advice / support it would really help me . My aim is 1200 calories daily

    Maybe up from 1200, that is low.

    Hello, I've sent a friend request.
    I'm having a break from SW after 12 months on it. Have lost 1.5 stone but have been up a lb down a lb for over a month now and have 1.5 stone still to go. I'm on 1200 too, even on other sites that people have recommended to get a more accurate calorie allowance it comes out at that, it comes from being a shortie with a sedentary job :smiley:

    Do you exercise or just using diet? Exercise can help. Try not to have a "lose it fast" mentality, but rather "lose it forever" I'm working on that myself right now.
