Hi

It's good that your back on this lovely friendly forum. Well done for making that decision and taking the big step to come back. I'm sure someone from admin will pick you up if not tonight but definitely in the morning.

Have a look around, Daily Diary, weekly challenges and plenty of wonderful advise and encouragement.

I think most people will be asleep but don't loose heart

Goodnight and sleep tight πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘πŸ»

Hi Wadestreet and welcome back.

Like Gemini pointed out, there are plenty of challenges going on and one of the big things is the Daily Diary.

Good luck!

Welcome back, Wadestreet :)

I'm sorry to hear that you've been having a tough time, just lately, but very pleased that you were able to pick yourself up and return to the fold :)

In line with your wishes for a fresh start, I'm going to give you full newbie honours, which means the introduction to the forum and the newbie badge :)

Take a look at the Pinned posts section to the right of your screen (bottom if you're using a mobile), or in the drop down on the 'Posts' page (it says 'arrange by'). 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 a weigh-in every day of the week and you'd be very welcome to join one of them. The threads can always be found in the Events section, to the right of the HOME page, bottom on a mobile.

We also run a Daily Diary, where we share our meal and exercise plans for the day. It's a great place to get ideas and to keep us focused. The link can also be found in Events.

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 :)
