New Grandaughter

[portugal59]

Hi, I joined today after years of slimming clubs. My grandaughter was born in September and it has made me realise I need to get weight off if I want to enjoy her growing up.

Hi portugal59 and welcome to the forum.

Many congratulations on the birth of your granddaughter in September.

Check out the Welcome Newbies post in the pinned posts section (to the right of your screen on a pc, bottom on a mobile) - this contains some great info for starting out and navigating your way around the site. Then work out your BMI using the NHS BMI calculator - nhs.uk/Tools/Pages/Healthyw... and have a look at the 12 week healthy eating plan. Don't forget to sign up for the weekly emails.

Take all of your before measurements and maybe a photo.

We run weigh-ins every day; at the moment Sunday is our least busy day and consider joining some of our challenges as they are fun and motivating.

We also give out weight loss badges and you are welcome to have a Newbie one for the first 12 weeks of your journey if you would like one?

Best of luck and I look forward to seeing you around ☘

I'm sure we will get there. I've got a long way to go but I now have the motivation I was lacking. x
