I am finding that many posts are one (1) year to five (5) years old ... seems strange ... and then there are a few current posts ... just not many!

Hi, BecDee , Welcome

It would take you hours a day to read all the posts...

If you search for a topic, the system only seems to find old posts.

Just click on the nine circles and then posts.

Nine circles?

Yes... when you open the forum, do you not get a House (home) ikon, four circles, the messages speech bubbles, and a bell, across the top of the screen?

are you using a smartphone or a computer, and a mac or a windows computer?

Yes... The icon with a circle containing four circles (containing the running man, the scales, the apple, and the heart) is the icon for this weight loss forum... click on that.

Don’t use the search as this finds ‘similar’ posts. For most recent you need to go to the forum ‘home’ page. (See the pictorial guide Moreless has given the link to 😊)

Great... clicking on nine circles gives you a list of forums to select from.

The four circles in a circle is the weight loss forum ...you could not post here if you were not following the weight loss forum.

Click on four circles in a circle, ...do you get a "posts" option then?

You're not seeing many posts, BecDee, because you're staying on the HOME page, which only shows the 5 most recent posts, unless you click on 'Show more'.

As you're in the USA, you're anywhere between 5 and 10 hours behind the UK, where the majority of our members are from, there will be more than 5 posts in the POSTS page for you to browse, when you arrive. If you have a look at this, it will give you a pictorial for how to move between pages, whatever device you're using healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh...

The FAQ's will help you with other questions you may have about the forum

healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh...

Related Posts are there so that you can find posts on a similar subject to the thread that you're reading. I, personally, rarely go into them, as they are so old and prefer to look in Topics for the subjects I want to read about, as they are date ordered and you'll find the newest first.

I hope this helps :)

Thank you ... I have actually been scrolling thru as many sites and posts as possible because I am very interested in utilizing this platform to assist in my weight loss ... here is where I found the 2 year old post: healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh... and here is the 3 year old post: healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh... ... there was a 5 year as well!

The majority of the 'Related Posts', that you'll find to the right of your screen, above Pinned Posts, will be old.

The newer posts can be found by scrolling through the POSTS page. There are 1,376pages, with 30 posts per page, dating back to the 9th January, 2013. I suggest you start with today's posts and work backwards, if that's what you wish to do, but more current information will be found in Topics.

Current posts from me? The one shouldn't be more than a month old.

Not what you're looking for?
