A friend told me about this site. Have been trying to lose weight unsuccessfully for ages. Hope to get support/ideas from here which will keep me on track.

Aim to lose 2 stone.

Welcome to the weight loss forum.

Take a look at the Welcome Newbie post in the pinned post section on the right hand side or at the bottom if on a mobile. Read through the nhs 12 week plan and use the BMI checker to work out your daily calorie allowance.

Feel free to join in with any of the challenges, they are fun to do and keep us all motivated. You will find them in the pinned post section.

Our weigh-ins are run Monday to Saturday. At the moment Monday to Wednesday are full but do feel free to join us any day Thursday to Saturday. The weigh-ins are in the Events section on the home page on the right.

Enjoy your first week.

Hi

Congratulations on your fantastic achievement, it's very inspiring to hear your story.

Thanks, I think it would keep me focused to know I'm checking in my weight so I will have a look at weekly weigh in page.

Best Wishes

Thank you so much for taking time out to message me with all those helpful details.

Will look at it more over next few days and get my head round it all.

Can tell I am going to get lots of support. So glad I joined up rather than conventional "slimming club'

Hi newgirl I have just stumbled across this site too. Joined up a few mins ago and also looking to lose two stone and after many unsuccessful other diet attempts. Would be great to get some support from here ;-)

Good Luck curlycy! We can do this!

Think I will aim for 1/2 stone targets at a time.
