Hello Luckylou and welcome to this Forum! Am sure if you've taken this step there is some motivation on the simmer, join in here and am sure you'll get plenty of ideas and hopefully feel encouraged to act for your health.

You will have been sent a Welcome post on registration which gives you lots of advice and guidance on how to navigate this site.

Here's a reminder link to the Site Guide

There's a lot there but it's worth taking your time to read,honest!

We recommend you joining a Weekly Weigh In on the day of your choice, and using the Daily Diary, where members share their meal plans and get useful feedback.

It would be a good idea to check out your BMI if you've not already done so..you don't need a tape measure just your weight and height and here's a link to the NHS calculator

Please also read this information about security, especially as your post is unlocked

A key and distinctive feature of our Forum is the support between members which you will experience (and add to yourself !) as you join in and chat with others.

All the best on your journey ! 😊

Hello and welcome, Luckylou

If you're referring to the HU app, it is still in development and doesn't give access to all art of the forum so you're best getting rid of it and using the website, whatever device you're on

Hi, Luckylou , welcome.

If you "slim smart" weight loss is not so hard! It is not all about motivation and masochism.

Some 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:
