Hello and a very warm Welcome to the Weight Loss Forum Pippadee63

We are a very chatty and friendly group so there’s no need to feel shy

If you haven’t already then please read the Pinned Posts here healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh... Please read it carefully so you can find all the information you need to find your way around.

As a peer to peer support group we rely on mutual encouragement, 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

Indigo 😊

Hi Pippadee and welcome :)

No need to be scared... everyone's in the same boat as you and trying to find the best way for themselves to move forward.

Joining in often is normally key to helping yourself and there are many events and challenges to involve yourself with.

Ask all the questions you have and there'll always be someone (or more) to help out.

Good luck! :)

Hi, Pippadee63 , 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:

Newbies IF FAQ:
