Hi i have been given advice from my doctor at Lincoln hospital that I need to lose weight tone up and get back into shape but im finding it hard i never know what to make im sure i have to much food on my plate even though I only have a small plate now i also tend to eat late at night sometimes its fruit but other times it's biscuits or ice cream stuff like that i think its because im under a lot of stress with my 22 year old daughter who is driving me and my partner up the wall if anyone can help in any way i would be more than grateful thanks in advance

Welcome to the forum Tigerlily 💐 my advice would be to join a weigh-in group in the weightloss section (there's one for every day of the week) and also look at some of the fitness groups. The support and motivation you'll find here is amazing, and there's always someone to listen if you just need to vent.

Best of luck with your journey 🍀 you're defo in the right place! 😀

Thankyou how do i find the fitness groups ive tried to find some with no joy and can't figure out where the weigh in is either i know it should silly but haven't found my way around yet

[Activity2004 Administrator in reply to Tigerlily21]

The weigh in is on the Weight Loss NHS group for HU.

[Hidden in reply to Tigerlily21]

Not silly at all, there's a lot to navigate!

There's a general fitness group in the NHS weight loss section called

I THINK THERE IS SOMETHING NEW HAPPENING

And there's the couch to 5k section for runners

Hi. If you have not committed yourself to any weigh in group, we would love to have you among the Sunday Slimmers.

The post has been written but only opens for replies on Saturday 9pm British time, for 24 hours.

You will find it in the Pinned Posts.

Or you can click on my ‘avatar ‘ (cat), and the latest post is this Sunday ‘s weigh in.

If you still can’t find it on Saturday evening/ Sunday morning, let me know.

Good luck with your weight loss. You will do good.

We seem to have some forum confusion again Hidden and Elisabeth, the poster won't find the weigh-in on this forum.

[Elisabeth3 in reply to BridgeGirl]

Thanks. Sorry, didn’t realize we were not on the Weight Loss subforum.

[BridgeGirl in reply to Elisabeth3]

I'll send you the link for the post we did to help members know where they are

[BridgeGirl in reply to Hidden]

They're on the Weight Loss forum, Sammiseal. This is the Healthy Eating forum

[Hidden in reply to BridgeGirl]

I thought I said that 😳

[BridgeGirl in reply to Hidden]

Not meaning to pick you up, it's just that the poster might think the weight loss section is a part of this forum and might be looking for it here

[Hidden in reply to BridgeGirl]

Ah see what you mean! I was thinking HU was the forum with different sub-sections 😀

Hi, maybe worth using an app to track how much you eat. It's supprising how many calories are hidden in some foods! I use My Fitness Pal. It may help guide you in portion control which also was a surprise to me. Good luck!

Hi Tigerlily21 firstly welcome to the forum and I think that you and your partner need to establish boundaries with your daughter and the way to this to talk to your daughter in a way thats gives her the opportunity to say why her behaviour is driving you up the wall.

So to me this is about boundaries and respect and if you can all communicate then you can calmly see each others issues and work together rather than against each other as you have a them and us situation which needs resolving.

Good luck and I hope that you enjoy being a member of the forum and you work things out with your daughter.

Jerry. 😊
