Hi all

I am new to chat rooms and not too sure on how it all works.

I am hopefully going to reduce my weight and gain more health

Hello Rusty15 and welcome to our friendly forum

There are quite a few of us here that had no idea how these forums work when we joined. It is very easy, you just join in - come and have a chat to us everyday if you can. A good place to do this is here - healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh...

You could start your weight loss journey today by joining in with the Tuesday Trimmers weigh in - here is the link - healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh...

To make navigating the forum easier, we’ve put all the information you’ll need in a Newbie pack and here’s the link

Please take the time to read it carefully, so that you can enjoy all that we have to offer.

We also ask that you read this important information about internet privacy and security, especially as you have left your post unlocked.

We would like to make sure you are aware that if you leave your posts unlocked, they can be seen on Google, Twitter, Facebook etc. Some of our members will not respond to unlocked posts as they value their privacy.

We would be very interested to know how you found us?

Wishing you all the best

Hi Rusty, the best thing is just to join in. You don't need to post as there's so much set up for you already here. I wasn't a user of online Forums but this one has been a game changer for me.

I would recommend joining a weigh in on the day of your choice. You'll get to know a regular group of people and encourage each other along the way. For help in planning your meals (and I think planning is key) try the Daily Diary. You could browse at first and join in when you're ready. All directions in the Newbie pack that lucigret has given you the link for

Hello! I've just been on here a week or so and I have already found it incredibly helpful. It's already got me through an evening when I could have stuffed myself and didn't due to all the positive peer support I got in here. Really good luck with it all. How much do you want to lose?
