Hi Laula1987

Welcome to the weight loss forum.

Take a look at the Welcome Newbies post in the Pinned post section at the right hand side or if your on a mobile at the bottom. Have a look at the nhs 12 plan, many members including myself have had success with this plan. Use the BMI checker to make sure you are have the correct daily allowance.

Below the Pinned posts are the Topics where members share a range of weight related subjects which might help you.

Take your measurements and a photo at the start of your journey as this can be motivating when the scales don't move.

We have weigh-ins every day. Come and join us today, you can find them posted on the Home page in the Events section. Just click on the post and state your starting weight and what you are aiming to lose this week.

To get the best out of the forum be active, share experiences and ideas. Read some of the posts in the Topic section, they are good for inspiration and can keep us motivated.

Good luck with your first week.

Rose

Good luck xx

I had a similar 'lightbulb' moment after browsing this site for a while and am so glad I dived right in! Join the February fitness challenge and have a few brisk walks - you will be really glad you joined us as there's loads of motivation on here to reach a healthy BMI. Good luck xx
