Hi I'm new

[Geran28]

I so need to loose this weight and am going to try my best to succeed. It sounds daft but I'm actually scared of parting with my best friend wrong food who has brought comfort followed by sadness for most of my life. Please help me on this lonely journey become a more stronger, healthier, confident person.

Hi Geran28,

Welcome to the forum, and hope you enjoy being part of it. It's a friendly place and there's always plenty of people around and about here. Keep posting, like Bakersdozen suggests, and you'll soon get to know people on here.

We have a Monday weigh-in group, which I post just before 7am every Monday - and myself and a lovely team of 4 others (whom collectively we call the 'Fab 5'ers' respond to people who join us there) - if you think you might like to be part of that, then please do join us - and anyone else who is new and happens to be reading this - just join in, we would love to have you on board.

The NHS 12 week plan is a really good plan, and definitely worth a look. It's more of a lifestyle change than a diet, which is more sustainable for future weight loss and also for maintaining weight loss too.

Whatever you do, I hope you'll enjoy being part of this community, and good luck with all your goals.

Hi Geran and welcome,

Today's your lucky day, you've found a group of people who know exactly what it's like to want to change their lives for the better by following a healthy eating plan and to shed those unwanted pounds.

You will never be alone while you're part of this forum, there's always somebody to listen or to answer any queries you may have, I've even logged in during the night when I've had trouble sleeping and found a like minded person doing the same thing.

Good luck to you and best wishes for a healthy eating future.
