Hi Moonfaerie,

Welcome to the Weight Loss NhS forum. It's great that you're feeling as if it's time to take control, and I hope that you'll enjoy a fresh start. The NHS 12 week plan is really good, and I'd recommend having a look at our Welcome Newbie post, which is in the Pinned Posts area - right-hand-side of the homepage.

I hope you'll join in with any Challenges going on in the forum, and maybe join us for the Monday group weigh-ins, if you like the idea of a weigh-in group that is supportive and friendly.

Wishing you a really good weekend and a good week ahead.

Lowcal :-)

Hello Hidden and welcome to the weight loss forum.

I'm afraid I don't know anything about your medical conditions so cannot advise you there πŸ˜• With regards to weight loss, like lowcal said above, have a read of the newbies post and also take a look at the nhs12 week plan 😊 It may also be worthwhile to have a chat with your medical practice nurse, she may know of support groups in your area 😊

Good luck
