Hi I'm 38 and new to the group. So I need to lose at least 4 stone. Fairly active but have low thyroid and a bad back.

Hi and welcome Moppy2018 I was diagnosed 2 months ago with low thyroid - how long have you been diagnosed?

I have managed to lose 20lbs prior to being diagnosed and am hoping to get a few more 1lbs off in the new year - I have at least 3 stone to go :)

I'd like to invite you to join our Newbie Club, which we hope will be a good place for you to connect with members, who are also just starting out, or restarting. If you just post a few words to introduce yourself and respond to others there, you'll soon break the ice. Here's the link

You'll find all the information you need to navigate the forum in the header, so please take the time to read it carefully.

Wishing you all the best :)

Wasn't aware of your diagnosis cracker. Even more kudos to you for having travelled this far. You've done so well already so I'm sure you'll knock off more than a few pounds this coming year.

Welcome Moppy2018 ! You've taken the first of many small steps. I've got 4 stone + to lose and it seems massive doesn't it. Break it down into little bits, stay active on the forum, especially when the kitchen cupboards are calling you, and we'll get there together. I'm going to weigh in with the Monday Mass Movers. Which day of the week are you weighing in?...xx
