Hi irwinsing

Welcome to the weight loss forum.

For any recipes have a look at "Recipes/Meals/Snacks" in the Topic section on the righ hand side.

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.

Have a look at the Daily Diary which you can find on the Home page in Events. It is where all the members are sharing their daily plans on what they are eating and any exercise they are doing. This thread will give you some ideas on how to start.

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 today. 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.

Hi irwinsing, welcome to the forum. I have lost weight using the 5:2 eating plan and it worked well for me. I am sorry but I haven't got any recipes for veg curries but I am sure you will find something in the recipes section on here. I hope you have a successful weight loss journey.

Hi and welcome - I have posted a veg curry in the recipe section - I think it worked out to 134 cals per serving

Something else that I have made is a chunky veg soup and that is also low in calories and filling too
