Hello and welcome to the forum ,

I would make 2 suggestions, firstly join in with the Daily Diary and share your menu's so that we can see what you are eating and then we will be in a better position to give you advice and secondly have a read of this post,

healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh...

If you haven't already, please take the time to read the Welcome Newbie post, this will help you to navigate the forum, which is best done using the full website and not the app.

Please also take a look at all of the Challenges, Clubs and Events that we have, to help to keep you motivated and engaged with the forum.

The above link will take you to all the information you need. Participation is key to success and I would recommend that you at least join the Daily Diary and a Weigh In day of your choice.

As a peer to peer support group, we all benefit from encouragement and support from one another, so look forward to seeing you join in around the forum :)

Wishing you the best of luck on your weight loss journey :)

Hi Saima_shafi. I have always had problems with my weight but I am now having less carbohydrates and the weight is slowly coming off. There is lots on the internet about low carb eating. Basically no white bread, rice, pasta and nothing with lots of sugar in it. This way of eating has stopped my cravings for chocolate and ice cream - it's a miracle. Good luck. Lisa

Good morning Saima,

I personally have tried all kind of weight loss diets like Slimmers World andWeight watchers over the last few years .

Unfortunately I found it very hard to lose weight while going out to different eating establishments and drinking in bars with friends . I couldn’t lose a great deal ( only 1 stone in three years ) .

My tip is to count calories and measure everything out and cut down on carbs and red meat .

Get in to fish , healthy stir fry’s and white meat . Always use fry light cooking spray too . Only oil I tend to use is sesame oil in stir fry’s only one tea spoon though ok .

This is bad advice. You shouldn't cut down on both carbs and fats. You have to eat something, you can't just eat protein.

I personally have had success cutting right back on carbs and letting the fats fall as they may. The NHS will advise you to cut right down on fats, and fill 1/3 of your plate with carbs. That advice seems to be making us all fat and sick, but many are following it.

Actually today I will be cutting down on both fats and carbs. It's called fasting.
