Hi,

Just wanted to introduce myself.

Been trying to loose weight for a year now. I was on the Weight Watchers ProPoints system but I wanted to try something different. Have lost just over a stone since January (after putting some back on as well >:o( ) and would lie to loose at least another stone.

I am a PhD student in my final year so weight loss isn't being helped with stress. I am hoping counting calories will help as I can still have a treat when the stress is really getting to me!

Wish me luck!

Katie
