Welcome to the forum 😀 there are lots of people here to encourage you and motivate you with your goals. There is a good pinned post to check out for newbies with lots of great information. There is a weekly weigh in on Monday that is very motivating. I wish you luck on your journey to a healthier life 😀
I gained weight whilst going through the menopause too...it's a killer! I have been on here since August and managed to lose a stone, which feels great.
Have you managed to check out the pinned post section on here, to the right of the screen if you are on a pc and at the bottom on a mobile. It has a post for newbies with loads of useful links and advice.
The forum is lovely and really supportive.
Wishing you all the best...you can do it!

Welcome! Wishing you lots of success. ☺
hi - I'm also feeling somewhat menopausal but haven't had anything confirmed. I'm also hoping to lose the best part of a stone for Xmas. Also got a holiday booked for early next year. Making an effort to eat less and move more. Here's to us 😊
Hello 😊 Weight loss is definitely more difficult after the menopause but not impossible 😊 I've found restricting sugar and white carbs helpful, also eating earlier in the day 😊
Good luck 😊
Thank you....yes let's! Ideally I'd like to lose a stone and a half but a stone by Xmas sounds doable! I'm pleased to have stuck to diet for 3 days! For me it's been hard to get in the zone but I know my physical and mental health will improve if I am a bit lighter. Let's support each other!
Hello Besom21 I have lost over a stone this year but I'm still 3 stones overweight. I'm struggling and haven't lost anything since the end of June, but would like to lose another stone before Christmas. I would be very happy to keep in touch along the way. Good luck with your weight loss.
