I really hope I’m doing this right and posting in the correct place.

This is my first week of joining the weight loss support. For the first few weeks I’m going to follow a very low calorie sole source diet. It seems to be the only way I’ve had success in the past.

Starting weight today 88kg

Would love to lose 10kg and think this is probably going to take me many months, especially with Christmas around the corner.

Well done to everyone else in the group who got through the last week and saw results, and even if you didn’t that’s just how it goes some weeks.

Looking forward to getting to know you all xx

Hi Halcyon-Days,

I suspect you meant to post on the weigh-in, but have created a stand alone post, rather than reply to the host, tidirhin2548. This should help to make it clearer for you :) healthunlocked.com/weight-l...

Just step by step, don't give up :)

This is a list of all our activities: click on this blue link healthunlocked.com/weight-l... Do you see Welcome Newbies? Below that, Frequently Asked Questions?

Scroll down further. The next one you'll see is Weigh In for (date). Click on that. Read the message from this week's host tidirhin2548 (you'll see the host's name below the header). The message explains all about the weigh in.

Below the message, you'll find a box with 'Reply to tidirhin2548': you write your details in that box and you're off an running. Then you scroll down to see the replies from other members and stop to say a few encouraging words - that's what the weigh in is all about, sharing the positivity around.

This sounds long-winded but once you've done it you'll know the steps: find the post that you want by following that blue link: click on the post: reply to the host with your news: chat to others.

Once you've joined in with the weigh in, have a look at the other posts in the list :)

Don't worry, the fact that we've had to create a 'how to' post shows that many, many people get caught out the same way and that it's the site at fault, not you :)
