Hi and welcome, Murr :)

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 :)

Not sure if you are aware but the army has some pre joining plans to improve your health and fitness:

army.mod.uk/join/38144.aspx

Have a look on there if you haven't already.

My advice is plan your meals and plan your exercise.

Swaps - anything you like that can add calories, can you swap it for something with a lower calories.

Drink plenty of water it helps feeling full and the hydration has it's on benefits.

I hope this is some benefit to you.

Good luck!

Dan
