Hi Linda-60

Welcome to the weight loss forum.

Take a look at the Welcome Newbies post in the pinned post section on the right hand side or at the bottom if on a mobile. The post includes the nhs 12 week plan and a BMI checker to work out your daily calories.

Feel free to join in with any of the challenges also found in the pinned post section. have a look at the "January Amnesty" post in the same section as it can help support with getting into the right mind frame to losing weight.

Our weigh-ins are run from Monday to Saturday. Most days are full now but we do have spaces on Thursday and Saturday at the moment. You can find the weigh-ins posted on the home page on the right in the Events section.

Join in on the forum as this is where we all get our support and gain lots of information on healthy eating and exercise.

Enjoy your first week.

Rose

My name is linda and i weighed myself this morning and am just over 11stone. Would like to get down to 9-91/2 stone but have found it difficult to get motivated for various reasons. Have lost weight before but was a few years ago. Would like to make my weight goal loss this week between 1 and 2lb.

Good luck Linda-60

You'll find lots of support here from lovely people who understand the ups and downs.

For me healthy eating has to go hand in hand with exercise, even if it's just walking.

Good luck and keep posting xx
