Family support.

Hi, i have just joined. Need to lose weight to reduce my bmi and feelings of being 'fat'. I also want to help my grandson lose weight. He is very overweight and i would like him to feel healthier and more confident. So i thought i would do this to try and encourage him too. Him and his brother live with me since their mum died and i feel his eating is mostly emotional. I want to encourage him to feel better and keep healthy.

That I am sure will be good motivation and how thought full to help him too. I'm fairly new on here but do find it helps to come on and give me a focus. I'm trying to loose weight to feel better about myself.

Hi and welcome, Crochet32

I don't know how old your grandson is, but the 12 week plan isn't suitable for anyone under 18. My advice would be to keep it simple. Stick to 3 meals a day and base your menus on fresh, natural foods, meat, fish, eggs, full fat dairy, vegetables, nuts, seeds and healthy fats, all cooked by your own fair hand. Avoid processed foods, especially vegetable oils, low fat spreads, low fat/fat free dairy, products marketed as 'healthy', such as breakfast/cereal bars and snacking between meals. These simple guidelines will get you on the right road to improved health and weight loss.

All of the information you need about the forum can be found in Pinned Posts healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh... and I hope you'll be joining all the Events, Challenges and Clubs that we run, especially a weigh-in and the daily diary.

We've found active participation to be key to successful weight loss and, of course, it's a good way to get to know people, find inspiration and share support and encouragement.

Wishing you all the best
