Hi all!

I'm Helen aka Enny.. I am 36 and am am advisory teacher from Worcestershire.

I am feeling a bit nervous as I write because in about an hour and a half I will be setting out to go to my very first slimming World Class - in fact its my first ever slimming class of any sort...

The decision has been coming for a while - but at 4am this morning I decided that today I would do a web search and find my local class - and lo and behold theres one near my home this evening.. so I called the leader.. and off I go!

I have a long journey.. I need to lose 8 - 10 stone to be anywhere near where I "should" be.. but anything lost is a bonus and step forward eh. A friend of mine is a member here and when I told her about going to the class she recommended that I come here too.
I am quite experienced when it comes to forums as I moderate one of the big parenting sites out there and love meeting new people and chatting and hopefully one day paying forward any support I may get along the way.

Sooo wish me luck!

Helen xxx

hiya Enny and welcometogroup

Well done for taking your 1st step and joining a SW class clapping2 The hardest part is often plucking up the courage to join a class, but as soon as you're in there you find that everyone is there for the same reason!

Good luck with your weight loss and if you've any questions at all just fire away hunny! xx

Helen - I am sooooo proud of you!

Should explain - I went to school with Helen, ahem, a few years ago msnwink and she told me yesterday that she was going to go to SW! I obviously mentioned this group to her.

So glad you enjoyed your first meeting Helen. Anything that seems complicated, isn't and you just need to ask the experts on here!
