I have been looking at the forum's on and off for quite some time now and i cant keep putting it off i need to lose some weight and get healthyer rather badly.
Taken me a while to be able to join let alone post 
any tip's or anything would be greatly appreciated ive struggled for quite some time now
Hi, you've taken the first step! Have a look a the 12 week plan, there are loads of tips and suggestions on there.
Stick with it, we're all in the same boat! Best of luck
Hey! Welcome aboard! I've just rejoined today after a bit of a break and I've been reacquainting myself with what a lovely place it is to hang out. My advice? Read posts, and then read more posts, and then keep reading. There are so many people here with inspirational stories, and others (like me) who struggle a bit too stay focused sometimes. And it's the combination of everyone that means you can always find someone who understands what you're experiencing. Set yourself some short and longer-term goals, and get going. Good luck!
Hi Zmole,
Well done for taking the step of joining and then posting too - those are both big steps, and I would like to welcome you to the Weight Loss NHS forum, and hope that you'll enjoy being part of this community. We have a Welcome Newbie post, which is in the Pinned posts area - see the top right-hand-side of the homepage and you'll see the Pinned posts. It's worth a read, and explains things that members like about the forum.
Also, look below the Pinned posts, and there's an Events section, where the link to the latest Monday group weigh-in can be found, so do have a look at that to see if it might be something you'd consider participating in. You'd be very welcome to join us.
There are also some great Challenges going on in the Pinnned posts, so lots to consider!
Most importantly, have a great week. I'd recommend the NHS 12 week plan as a good structure and many of us have lost weight using that plan.
Enjoy your week.

Hi zmole,
Sounds like your the same as me, I took the plunge yesterday and posted my weight in the weigh in.
Taken me awhile to get my head in gear but hopefully this time we'll make it.
Good luck!
I've just started too, Everyone seems very friendly and welcoming. I need to lose around the 4 stone mark so I'm in it for the long haul, lucky for me my husband is very supportive and is doing it with me. I don't care how long it takes I will get there. Best of luck
Thanks all I will try the 12 week plan going to try and start it tomorrow along with the couch to 5k.
