Good evening,my name is Footyma,short for footmad.

I'm looking to lose weight gradually adnd got about this group at my local Doctors.

Hello and welcome to the forum, Footyma

The best exercise is whatever you enjoy and then you'll stick to it. Sounds as though you've found something you like and I guess it's sociable, too. That may give you some other leads. Walking is brilliant and free.

For weight loss, what we eat plays a much bigger part than exercise. I'll give you a couple of things to read that might give you a different angle on things

I have tagged you in our Welcome post so pop over and read it as that will help you get the most out of the forum. I recommend a weekly weigh in, and using the Daily Diary for meal planning and sharing ideas.

I hope you'll become an active member and we see you around

Hi, Footyma , Welcome.

Walking is excellent exercise... I walk 30 or 40 Km a week.

Many of us here find that what works is a combination of The Low Carbohydrate, High-Fat (LCHF) diet (see the forum here on Health Unlocked) and Not Eating All Day AKA Intermittent Fasting (IF). See:
