In January I joined a weightloss group and managed to lose 7lbs I found the group a bit much (lots of daily challenges which I found hard to keep up with with having DC) but I really liked the WhatsApp group as the other members were able to support each other and share pictures and get to know each other a little and if I ever felt I needed a bit more motivation I could post in there.

Does anyone know of any similar programmes like this that have a whatsapp group that mostly follow calorie counting (not slimming world or WW). Any suggestions welcome as I can't find anything.

@Lindsaylosing

Sorry I don't have any suggestions but I'd also love to do this!

Maybe we could discuss it on here?

@jamrolypolyandcustard I will let you know if I find anything.

@Kate8990 thanks for the suggestion. I have tried to join in weightloss on here before but I find it hard to get to know people (and remember their usernames) or share pictures but we could give it a go.
I have gained back 2lbs in February and I am very disappointed in myself. I have started off today well with a healthy breakfast so hoping that my good intentions will last.

How are you both doing? Have you got much to lose?

@Lindsaylosing 2lbs is nothing so I wouldn't let that get you down. Weight can fluctuate slightly day by day. I gain a few pounds when I'm due on for example or it could be water weight.
I'd like to lose 7-14lbs before I go on holiday. My jeans are starting to get a bit looser but I love my food so it's easier said than done. My diet hasn't been great lately although today I just had branflakes for breakfast and a prawn salad for lunch. Not sure what I'm having for tea yet, what about you? 😊

@Lindsaylosing @Kate8990

Hi! I'm 9lb down from the start of January but it's going a bit up and down at the moment.

Had a great evening out and gained 4lb (I know this is just water weight) but still
