Hi all. Just starting on the nhs weight liss journey. I weighed in yesterday at 11 stone and 9 lb. I would eventually like to get down to around 9 stone but for now I'm aiming at getting under 11 stone. I've been on high doses of steroids so not looking or feeling my best and seriously need to do something about it.

Good luck on your journey to a thinner you I am sure that once you quit the steroids your weight will magically go down

I do hope so. I was overweight before I was put on them and managed to only put a few pounds on over the last 2 years on them but no hope of losing anything! On a lower dose now so hoping the scales will start moving!

I am sure they will

Hi skirtsmiller, I returned to this forum on Monday. I have been here twice before, although my second attempt was very feeble and short lived but I know from the first time I joined that the support is superb. Good luck on your weight loss journey.
