Hello I'm Yeyeo

I need to lose about 6 stone from now. I've lost about 1 stone in the last 6 weeks. I'm starting again with my scales on a hard surface this time to get more reliable readings.

I can't find the pinned post section! I'm on a mobile. I've looked at the bottom of the screen!

I found the pinned post - at the top of the screen.

are you on the app or on website version as this may be why it's different :)

Hi and welcome

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.

Have a look at the NHS 12 week plan, as many people have had success with it. Also use the BMI (can be found in the pinned Newbie post) to find your target calories, it's important to eat enough. This was a major turning point for me, realising I could eat anything I wanted as long as the calories are accounted for 😊

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 😊

To the right of the HOME page (bottom on a mobile), you'll find Events. In there, you'll find links to our daily Weigh-in's (you will choose just one day per week), our Daily Diary, where we post our menu and exercise plans, for accountability, advice and support - which is great to get ideas of what other people are eating and I have to confess to nicking some of their menu's and our “What's happening today” thread, where we pop in for a chat.

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 😊

Wishing you all the best on your weight loss journey

I only see pinned posts when I'm in weight loss NHS never in HU. I haven't found any events for the weighins

Have you gone in from the 'arrange by' route to the pinned posts?

Is this in weight loss NHS or HU? No I haven't found Arrange by yet in either.

Hi yeoyeo, to find events, you need to be using the full website page and be on the HOME page.

If you're finding pinned posts at the top of your page, you must be accessing through 'arrange by', on the POSTS page.

I hope this helps :)

I'm on a mobile. I haven't used an arrange by link. I'll try the website on a iPad later. Thanks!
