Hello and welcome, Chrystian 😊

I hope you don't mind but I deleted your duplicate post :)

Have you decided on a plan yet? I suggest you steer clear of diets as, by their nature, they're time limited and I think most of us are aiming for a healthy weight for life.

You will have been sent a welcome message with a link to our Pinned Posts. Have a look at them, particularly the Welcome Newbies post which will help you find your way around. I recommend joining a weekly weigh in on the day of your choice, and using the Daily Diary, where members log their meal plans and get useful feedback.

Please also read the information about security/privacy, especially as you have left your post unlocked.

To make the most of the forum, join in with activities, read and reply to posts, ask questions and encourage others – it will all pay off for you 😊

You're welcome :)

If you get involved, particularly with the Diary and weekly weigh in, you'll find people following various plans and they'll be happy to answer your questions :)

Hi, Chrystian , welcome.

Weight loss is not all about motivation and masochism - if you "slim smart" it is not so hard!

Many of us here find that what works is a combination of The Low Carbohydrate, High-Fat (LCHF) diet (see the forum here on Health Unlocked) and Not Snacking All Day AKA Intermittent Fasting (IF). See:

Welcome and good you've said healthy lifestyle and not diet, it's a long term thing that works best. You'll get plenty of support here especially if you join in a weigh day. Good luck
