Hello and welcome to the Weight Loss Forum lorri_spence 😊

We have found that active participation is key to success, especially the Group Weigh In and Daily Diary. Please see today’s Chat Thread with a list of all the things happening on the forum healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh...

Whilst it’s true that reducing calories will lead to weight loss, there are many other complicated factors. A common mistake is trying to reduce fat and eating too many carbohydrates, most professionals now agree that sugar (and carbohydrates work the same as sugar) are the issue. Please read this for a more detailed explanation (please ignore the title, it applies to everyone) healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh... I presume from the title of your post that you are also battling fibromyalgia? A diet high in carbohydrates can inflame this condition, it’s worth doing some research 😊

If you haven’t already then please read the Welcome post here healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh... please read it carefully and just ask if you have any questions.
