Welcome. I only joined this site a few days ago so can't give a longstanding testimony, but there's lots of encouragement and motivation if you choose to accept it (flashback to Mission Impossible there lol). Good luck!

Hi and welcome Zkhan :)

You'll get plenty of encouragement and motivation here :)

This is a link to our welcome newbies thread, it's full of handy tips to get you started

This is the most recent thread to the Around the World challenge

Wishing you all the best :)

I just started today too. I stood on my scales this morning and was horrified to find I weighed 10st. 7. I'm just 5 ft. 1!!!.

Currently I have some brown rice cooking so that I can freeze batches and I will have a curry for an early dinner and not eat after. I went to the gym earlier and restarted my programme.

Hi! Me too on both counts. I have made a couple of posts and everyone has been helpful so far. From my (scant) experience I would say this is a good place to air your concerns and worries, triumphs and oops moments. xxx Best of luck xxx

Hi Zkhan,

Welcome to the forum. I hope you'll enjoy being part of the community here, it's a friendly and supportive place. I hope you'll encounter lots of encouragement and motivation here - Moreless has given you a really good couple of link pages to look at, and hopefully you'll find plenty of things on the site that you might want to be part of.

I think the Around the World Challenge posted by FizzyLiz is really good - and also, I would like to bring your attention to the Fab 5'ers Monday group weigh-in thread - which I post just before 7am on Mondays. Just check out my profile (Lowcal) and you can see previous threads - if you like the idea of a Monday group weigh-in, then you'd be very welcome to join us (everyone is welcome!) and we'd love to have you as part of the group - but I do realise that it isn't every person's cup of tea.

The good thing about the forum is that people find the things that work for them, and share ideas and motivational ideas, which makes it such a great community.

Have a great weekend, and hope to see you around and about in the forum.

Lowcal :-)
