I have Menieres Disease and have had it for 6 years. I want to take up running again so went to see my GP yesterday, he said I could as long as I was in a safe place and that someone was with me and I did it gradually. He was going to take my blood pressure but the monitor was missing, he told me to go & have it checked in the chemist, I did, the first reading was 150/81 the second was 147/83. I want to loose some weight as well.

Hi and welcome Pp :)

Take a look at the Pinned Posts section, to the right of your screen (bottom, if you're using a mobile) and have a look at the Welcome Newbies thread, it has a link to the NHS 12 week plan, which is a guide to healthy living, rather that a specific diet plan.

Look at the Topics section beneath that, for posts that could answer any questions you may have.

Consider joining any, or all, of our challenges, as they're fun and motivating.

Join us for the monday group weigh-in. If you follow Zest and myself , you'll be notified when we post the thread. However, the latest thread can always be found in the events section, to the right of the home page.

Be active on the forum, as that's where we exchange ideas and get our daily dose of motivation and inspiration :)

Wishing you all the very best :)
