Hi Hidden

Welcome to the weight loss forum.

well done in losing 8.5lbs in your first week that's brilliant. We award badges as everyone loses weight, would you like a 7lb badge?

Take a look at the Welcome Newbie post in the Pinned post section at the right hand side or at the bottom if your on a mobile. Have a look at the nhs 12 week plan, many members have had success following this plan. Use the BMI checker to work out your daily calorie allowance.

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

Take your measurements at the start together with a photo so you can see the changes on the days the scales don't move.

We have daily weigh ins so why not come along and join us. You can find the weigh ins on the Home page in the Events section on the right. Just click on the post in Events and record your start weight and any loss/gain or maintain for the week.

To get the most of the forum be active, share tips, recipes and experiences. Read some of the posts they are very motivating.

Have a good first week.

Rose

8.5 lbs is AMAZING in your first week.

Make sure you keep it going by planning every day what your food will be and using apps like Myfitnesspal which lets you track your calories easily - its actually sort of fun planning your food day and then juggling it to get the most out of it (yes I am a complete calorie nerd lol).

You can do this - I know it!

Not what you're looking for?
