Hi,

I had a look around the 'healthunlocked' site and it looks interesting, I am hoping to get help with the following....

1. Healthy low calorie meal ideas, I either have no imagination or maybe just fussy?

2. Speak to people who struggle or have struggled with losing weight like myself....

3. Discuss why I don't lose weight on diet programs e.g. weight watchers, slimming world etc etc

I am also looking for some help around the site...

e.g. Weighing in every week, either on my own or with a 'Buddy'

If anyone can give me tips on how to get the right support as there seems to be so many Communities and links I did get a bit lost.

I would like to think I might be able to help people along the way also.

Thanks in advance

Hi Jinty60,

Welcome to the forum. As you've mentioned your wish to lose weight, maybe you might want to look in the section called 'Weight Loss NHS' as it is an area where people discuss their goals to lose weight.

There are several regular weight loss posts - either by individuals, or as groups. I do a Monday weigh in entitled 'Please Join Me For a Monday Weigh-in' (current date in brackets), and I usually post at about 7am on Mondays - quite a few people join in with that, and it's a weekly weigh-in. You'd be welcome to join us if you want to, or indeed to set up your own weigh-in post - or join in with other people's posts - it's very friendly and supportive.

It's also worth looking at the NHS website pages where there's a really good 12 week structured plan for weight loss.

Wishing you success with your goals, and hope to see you around on the forum.

Lowcal :-)

Hi Rajashekhar,

I noticed you just said 'thank u' and wasn't sure if you meant that post for me or for Jinty, but there is a later link for the Monday weigh-in now, which is:

healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh....

However, I am going to be away now till 13th July, so can't reply to anyone now. However, Prin (a great forum member on Healthunlocked weight loss site) will be doing the next 2 Mondays weigh-ins (29th June and 6th July) if you do want to join in, so look out for her name. I'll be back for the weigh-in on 13th July.

Lowcal.

Not what you're looking for?
