Hi. I'm a Newbie

Hi. I actually started the 12 week plan 2 weeks ago. On my first week I lost 4lbs and this week I lost 2lbs. So, delighted with how things are going. My weigh in day is a Wednesday, but I'm not sure how to join with others in uploading my weight loss. Also, I can't find the events page. Good luck.

Hi and welcome, Shazza :)

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 :)

Good luck to you I am new too and a bit fazed by all what's going on on this site but it's really good and I spend ages looking at different topics it's driving my partner mad and I spend all my lunch hour on too. I think it's enthusiasm at its height at the moment I just hope I don't lose it too quickly 😊

Hi Hidden the if you are using a computer/tablet you can click on the home section which is near the top of the page but just under Weight Loss NHS in the strawberry pictures to the left hand side. Once you have done this you can find the events section page comes up on the right hand side slightly lower down where we have topics and pinned posts and it is under here. If you are using a mobile apparently it is all under everything at the bottom of the page but still under home and events sections but don't personally use my mobile for this so don't know for sure.
