Hi - I decided to start posting after registering months ago. I would love to lose the stone I've gained over the past year but want to do it sensibly so that I can maintain the loss in future. I am in my 50's, two children and work part time in a call centre and this doesn't help with weight loss! However, I love my Fitbit and this motivates me to doing at least 10,000 steps a day. I love to bike when I can, though after years of biking all weathers I have now turned into a fair weather biker at the moment I bike about 30-40miles a week, I try to go to the gym 2-3 times a week - I like to be active but the weight just sticks because I like my food too - I'm Taurus what can I say haha Anyway I'm giving it a real go and will be posting my weight Mondays and shall be looking round the site for any other motivational ideas so good luck everybody else and as I say...Let's sort this !!!

Hi Lessofme,
I know you've already joined the Monday group weigh-in, but I just wanted to reply to your very positive post here, and say 'Welcome' to the Weight Loss NHS forum! Glad you're looking round the site for motivational ideas, there's a lot of great posts - the Pinned posts area has many Challenges etc, plus the Welcome Newbie post as well.
Enjoy your week!
Lowcal

I'm new too! It sounds like you are really good with your exercise so that's definitely in your favour. Good luck, hope you see some progress
Hello Lessofme 😊 Just want to say hello and welcome 😊 You have some good links there from lowcal so have a read 😊 Slow and steady is the way to go, as a fellow Taurean I definitely don't do hunger or deprivation!!
Good luck
Thank you, you're right, there is lots of info on the site. I also started my first Couch to 5k podcast last night which went better than I thought so on now to day 2! ( Sorry but my replies don't include your username - I can't work out how to tag people names in blue? )
