Hi, I'm in my late 30s and have 2 children under 5. Joined in the hope it will encourage me to lose weight and get fit. I have an active job but currently not working and do very little other fitness

I've put on more then a few extra pounds during the lockdown and would like to say goodbye to my mum tum.

Hi and welcome, Lonelymango

Check out our Fit is Fun Club for exercise ideas and encouragement.

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.

If you haven't already taken it, here's a tour of the forum healthunlocked.com/?tour=true

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

Thanks for all the lovely comments, I definitely hope this helps me get to where I want to be.

This years summer body is definitely out the window but no reason why I can't start now ready for next year

You've come to the right place. Welcome!

It can seem overwhelming at first, however have a look at the links Admin recommended and to start off with, join the daily dairy and weigh in. You'll get lots of support. ☺

Hope to see you around the forum.
