Today's The Day

[MrMontyDog]

Good morning. I need to lose around 40lbs. Hopefully, by joining this group and following advice and inspiration from others, this will be the first day on the journey to achieving that goal.

Hello and welcome, MrMontyDog 😊

There's loads of support, encouragement and information on the forum and to make the most of it, join in with activities, read and reply to posts, ask questions and encourage others – it will all pay off for you 😊

You will have been sent a welcome message with a link to our Pinned Posts. Have a look at them, particularly the Welcome Newbies post which will help you find your way around. I recommend joining a weekly weigh in on the day of your choice, and using the Daily Diary, where members log their meal plans and get useful feedback.

Please also read the information you'll find there about security/privacy, especially as you have left your post unlocked,

Wishing you every success in reaching your goal

Good to hear it's going well, Cookry The Sunday Super Slimmers team will be pleased to hear your news. Hope to see you there later.

Have you had a look at the Daily Diary yet, where members post their meal plans and share ideas about food? Putting it "in writing" can really help with commitment to your plans

Welcome to our lovely forum. We’re glad to have you. Have you weighed yourself this morning? And do you want to join a weekly weigh in group? Find the Sunday weigh in under events.

Thank you. I'd love to join your weekly weigh in group but I'm finding it difficult to find you. I can't even find 'events'. I'm using an android phone. Any ideas?

Hi MrMontyDog , welcome.

Weight loss is not all about motivation and masochism - if you "slim smart" it is not so hard!

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 Snacking All Day AKA Intermittent Fasting (IF). See:
