Hi and welcome, Karen
Take a look at the Pinned posts section to the right of your screen (bottom if you're using a mobile), read the Welcome Newbie thread, then move through to the challenges, where we hope you'll find at least one that will appeal to you
Move down to the Topics, to find a variety of threads, collated into specific topics for ease of access and we ask that you also 'file' your own threads, so that others won't miss your important news
Take a look at the 12 week plan, as a lot of people have been successful with it, making sure to enter your details into the BMI calculator, to get a calorie allowance tailored to your personal requirements. Don't forget to take your starting measurements and a 'before' picture, as they can be very motivating on days that the scales refuse to co-operate
We run daily weigh-in's and you'd be very welcome to join us. The threads can always be found in the Events section, to the right of the home page, bottom on a mobile.
We've found that to get the best out of this community, we need to be active on the forum, as it's where we exchange information, get motivation and inspiration and make friends. We hope that you'll join us here, regularly, too
It's only left for me to wish you well on your journey
Hi Karen I joined a few days ago and I've got to say I'm really enjoying it. The 12 week plan is great if you haven't seen it yet. I'm just taking each week at a time and so far I'm finding it works. Plus the people on this forum are really friendly and encouraging. Good luck.
Kazm090 you have definitely come to the right place for support, it just flies through the airwaves.
Make sure you enjoy your journey, keep active on the forum and try out MyFitnessPal for recording calories and exercise. It just becomes a habit, or it has for me. Lots of people do different things and there is no right way you just need to find your way.
Best regards and good luck.
