Finally getting started
Decided to start at the worst possible time. I have at least 10 stone to lose. Was finally ready to start then went into 12 week isolation due to health issues, then had kids off school. And then we couldn't get food. Been living off carbs. But thankfully food supply is definitely improving and we got a full shop today.…

Isolation help
I am morbidly obese and have health issues that has put me in isolation. I have spoken to my consultant who said it may be 6 months until I return to normal living. I have 2 kids who are struggling with no seeing people for a long time and a charity to help run so I do have things to keep me busy. It seems a perfect…

Steps each day
Hey I have mobility issues and can only walk short distances with crutches and the rest is a wheelchair. I am really trying to increase my steps and am up to 2000 a day now. Annoyingly I didn't have a fitness tracker when I was well and healthy so I have nothing to base it on. So just wondering for those who class…

39 female UK , 315lbs, Autoimmune Disease

So I am 39 and live in the UK. I am 315lbs at 5ft 2 which is horrific and I really hate how I look. So my challenges......…

Looking for calorie advice
Hi I am ready to cry and need some advice. I have a lot of health problems and am on a lot of medication.

I had started on 1700…

Lots to lose and too many excuses.
Hi, not new but definitely looking for friends. I have met some really lovely people on here. But where are the mean people. Sometimes I need that. When you have probably 150lbs to lose then you are very talented at excuses..... 1. Long term health problems. It's not an excuse but I use it. 2. I have always been fat. Even…

Scared I will always be fat! Really scared.
Right I need to finally get a grip on this. But then realistically, I have always been overweight....always. I started on my first diet under my practice nurse at my doctors, who I hated, at 11. So since 11 I have pretty much been on a diet and as a result I weigh 21 stone at 5 ft 2. Or for US peeps I weigh 295lbs and am…

Need active and funny friends
OK I am 37 and very overweight. I can't really exercise due to health and disability so don't want friends that are judgemental of that but more than happy to support others that exercise. I am very sarcastic and just want to do this while seeing the lighter side x
