Hi neecoulson,

Welcome to the NHS Weight Loss Forum here on HealthUnlocked - this forum is a great place for support, motivation and inspiration to lose weight.

Well done for losing 2 stone so far

Take a look at the NHS 12 Week Plan, it contains recipes and exercise plans to follow for the first twelve weeks of your journey.

Take a look at the left of your screen (bottom if you're using a mobile device) and find the 'Pinned Posts' section, here you can find the 'Welcome Newbie' post, various challenges that are going on in the forum (take part in whatever ones take your fancy - if any do at all!), there is also a recipe collation there and any important posts from Admin

Also to your left is the 'Topics' area, here you can find posts related to each topic, it's good if you are looking for something specific

The Monday Group Weigh In takes place weekly and is posted alternately by Lowcal and moreless (I suggest you follow them, they are also our site admins), a morning session post is put live just before 06:30 and runs until midday, while the afternoon session runs from midday until 18:00 on the Friday of that week - it'll be running as usual this coming Monday, so, if you wish, you can go and post your starting weight there

All that remains is to wish you a great first week on the forum - be involved because it's where we get our boost each day

Congratulations on a fantasic start to your weight loss. 2 stone is a significant amount to lose. Perhaps arrange a special day for next spring and use that as a goal to work towards? Alternatively, split your 2 stone into 4 half stone targets and give yourself a mini non food reward after each one eg trip to the hairdressers or new shoes. Post your goals on here as everyone likes to share in the success of others. Good luck. Xx

Hi Neecoulson,

Congratulations on losing nearly 2 stone in a year, that is excellent! When you reach that 2 stone marker, you could have a 2 stone weight loss badge, and if you'd like a 1 stone one to enjoy wearing in the meantime, just let either me or moreless know, and we'd be very happy to award one to you.

Wishing you success, and do have a read of our Welcome Newbie post, as it is very inspiring and helpful. Lots of tips and suggestions from past and current members. Hope you'll join in with things in the forum, and enjoy participating here.
