Hello @chloexlaura and welcome to the weight loss forum 😊 Everyone has different foods they choose, I have porridge or eggs for breakfast, then soup or salad and a small whole meal sandwich. I don't use tinned soups as I prefer to make my own, but as long as you are eating a wide range of nutrients and counting the calories you can eat whatever you wish 😊

Here are a few suggestions for getting the most out of the forum. (Please note some of these suggestions are not available if you are using the HU App so I suggest you use the full website.)

The first place to look is 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. Also use the BMI checker to find your target calories, it's important to eat enough. This was a major turning point for me, realising I could eat anything I wanted as long as the calories are accounted for 😊

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 😊

The forum also have group weigh-ins every day if you wish to take part. The posts can always be found in the Events section on the 'home' page 😊

You'll notice a grey box next to people's names, these are achievement badges, and as a new member you may have a 'Newbie' badge. If you have any questions or would like a Newbie badge please just ask 😊

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 😊

Best wishes

Anna

Hi I doubt whether tomato soup would fill you up at breakfast time, so you are better going with foods such as eggs or porridge etc. You don't need to go hungry to lose weight, you just need to eat the right things and watch your portion control.

I work from nine till half one so don't get to eat lunch till about two o'clock but I find if I have 2 poached eggs on a slice of whole meal toast that really does see me through don't feel hungry at all and I work in a kitchen where there's a lot of things to temp me ha ha but manage to stay good :) I personally find if I have porridge I do tend to get hungry about eleven :) hope this helps , good luck :)
