Hi and welcome Tauty :)

Take a look at the Pinned posts section to the right of your screen (bottom if you're using a mobile), read the Welcome Newbie thread first and move through to the challenges, where we hope you'll find at least one that will appeal to you :)

Move down to the Topics, to find a variety of threads, collated into specific topics for ease of access and we ask that you also 'file' your own threads, so that others won't miss your important news :)

Have a look at the NHS 12 week plan, as many people have had success with it. Don't forget to take your starting measurements and a 'before' picture, as they can be very motivating on days that the scales refuse to co-operate :)

We run daily weigh-in's and you would be very welcome to join today's, or any other, bar Monday and Tuesday, which are unfortunately full. The threads can always be found in the Events section, to the right of the home page, bottom on a mobile.

We've found that to get the best out of this community, we need to be active on the forum, as it's where we exchange information, get motivation and inspiration and make friends. We hope that you'll join us here, regularly, too :)

It's only left for me to wish you well on your journey :)

Wine will ruin any attempts for you to lose weight successfully and I don't even think I need to mention cake! A bottle of wine = around 500 - 600 calories. So it all comes down to CICO, (calories in, calories out), so do you love your wine and cake as much as you would love to get rid of 14lbs of fat? You can lose 14lbs easy by April if you stick to it, plenty of support on here and the 12 week plan works so it is down to you Tauty ,,,,,,

Do you love cake and wine more than you would looking and feeling FABULOUS IN VEGAS. 🎲 󾓦

mmmmmm......no.

Ditch the cake and reduce the wine, you can do this Tauty :)

Tauty ask yourself which do you want more, to look fabulous in Vegas or the cake?? You can do it ☺

Hello Tauty

All the weigh-in threads are posted as 'events' but as fitforit says they often appear high up on the news feed.

Know how hard it is but maybe if you keep reminding yourself of how you want to look Cut out a photo of an outfit you would like to wear or keep looking at your wedding photos it will spur you on You can easily do it by April Just think how disappointed and annoyed with yourself you will be if you don't do it We are all here to give you support

Try not to have wine or cake in the house it will all be so worth it

Good luck and hope you have a fabulous time 😀
