Hello. I have also just joined. Just had a bout of bad health and after a month of steroids and inactivity I am HUGE!

Well I was very overweight to start with.

I cannot afford to join a slimming club and was wondering if anyone meets up in areas to chat socially and help/ swap ideas.

Hi.

I have loads to loose. I would like to loose about 7lb in the nxt 4 wks (doing it slowly). I can't afford to join a club either so came here to find support & motivation.

You can always chat to me & if I can I will help / swap ideas with you if I can help in anyway I will :)

Different people use different tools and clubs are one, but yes they do cost money! You can weigh in here on a Monday for free and share last weeks experiences good or bad and your goals for the week ahead, I reached goal last September and weigh in every week. I have put weight on in the holiday periods but I keep it in check and get it back off again, the weigh in is very important to me! Lowcal who usually does it is away I will have a go at filling in while she is away

Hi Jules67

I joined last Monday and l also have to lose a lot of weight -about 5 stones, so I can understand how you feel, I also noted Prin's reply which was rather motiving, don't you think?

Any way I can help - please let me know after all we are all doing this to improve our lives, whether for health or personal reasons. Good luck to all the newbies like me.

I have 7 1/2 stone to lose. I am 60 on 14th December so I thought I'd start that as my target. Being 4ft 9in tall I resemble a Weeble at the moment.

I intend weighing myself tomorrow morning and starting. only have a couple of days steroids left to take.

Hi Jules67 ive just joined and found everyone gave me lots of friendly supportive comments. I ha e lots to lose too (about 4 stone) but im just going to try an focus on how I feel and maybe treat myself every half stone. New lipstick or something. I think focusing on maybe half a stone at a time helps. Well it does for me. Little steps, not as daunting. Good luck x

Thanks for your responses. I feel that if we can help & motivate each other we will be able to feel better.

I feel that if we can share our losses we can do is.

Best of luck & Health to all of us!
