Time to make changes

Evening guys and gals

I’ve got quite a physical job and I am pretty active, my partner and myself also eat fairly healthy meals but I don't seem to have an ‘OFF’ button at night, just through habit. It can be anything from cereal, to fruit.

I have made excuse after excuse not to diet and it’s all caught up with me now. I’ve also received a partial knee replacement so I’ve got to be careful what exercises I try but I’m keen to see some big improvements this year as I’d love to be in better shape to get married.

Hello and welcome to the Weight Loss Forum PortlyPlumber1970

Evening nibbling as a tough habit to break, but all habits can be changed with practice. Eating enough at mealtimes is really helpful, so please make sure you check out your calorie target on the NHS BMI checker. Also, not all calories are equal, eating enough fat is really helpful, and much better for helping with cravings than cereal bars and fruit. See here healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh...

You will have been sent a link to Pinned Posts in your welcome message. Please read it carefully so you can find all the information you need to find your way around.

This is a very busy forum with lots going on, and nothing beats joining in, reading posts and replying to others. Our group Weigh-in and the Daily Diary are probably the best places to start.

Best wishes in your weight loss journey
