N2L I don't stick to the 1200 calories, I am still breastfeeding so add on an extra 300 or so. Plus I want this to be a lifestyle change and so it needs to be sustainable for me. I figure as long as I move everyday and make more concious decisions about what I am eating, I'm on the right track. I usually have the breakfasts and dinners while organising my own lunch.

I'm a massive emotional eater and am getting better in that regard while learning heaps about why I eat. That's probably the biggest thing I will be taking from the program

thanks for all the replies - you have put my mind at ease!

i'm on my own personal countdown to doing the 12wk program. I have made a list of all the things i think i will need to do it, and am gradually marking all those things off. (so far, i have bought a kitchen digital scale to weigh the portions on, a set of scales to weigh me on, next thing is a pair of sneakers to workout in as i don't have any supportive, filled in shoes to wear at all).

i do find all your posts about this program, very inspiring, esp the bits you struggle with, cos that's real life, and you all give each other heaps of great things to try (to get past, whatever is the struggle).

Eeekkkk I signed up this morning and absolutely wetting myself over it. I'm an emotional eater and pretty lazy with my food choices unfortunately. I'm going to focus on the food side and try and manage exercise where I can. Will I really need kitchen scales? I never thought of that before.
