Hi and welcome, Nemohotty

Try not to overwhelm yourself with the whole task ahead, but break it down into small manageable pieces and you'll get there, before you know it

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 NHS 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.

Be aware, that the HU app doesn't give you access to all of our important features, so we advise that you use the full website page.

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

Welcome Nemo.

Like moreless has mentioned already, set yourself your first mini goal and work towards that.

Do post if you've got any questions or thoughts.

Good luck!

Hi, you can lose the weight - bit by bit it will all mount up! Even losing a stone will make you feel better and you can do that in just a matter of weeks if you put your mind to it!
