@Emelia8 and all formites are welcome to join 😄

I am using shakes and health bars. No more snacking 😮

Thanks @Bunniekins

I have subscribed to this thread and will be following. Wishing you every success. I believe the shakes are a good option and are very effective. Meal supplement = less grocery shopping 😄👍

@Emelia8 welcome my dear friend :D. I agree with the shakes and the ones I am using really fill me up. I am sick of being unfit but will take it step by step. Have you got any exercise ideas for a very unfit pea?

Thanks for starting the thread @Bunniekins

Snacking is a good one

What type of exercise do you like?

Before starting any exercise - probably best to get clearance from your GP @Bunniekins

What shakes do you like?

@oceangirl hi oceangirl :). I am seeing gp tomorrow. I am usining optifast bars and shakes. worked well in the past But it can thin your hair so dont use too long.

@oceangirl @Emelia8 I used to like walking but find it too hot for me atm. Am thinking of getting an excerise bike where I can watch tv and excerise at the same time. What excercise do you ladies like?

I like Pilates @Bunniekins as a good all-round exercise. I am wondering if it could be worth your while to book a session with an exercise physiologist. They could devise a made to order exercise routine especially for you.

@Bunniekins I've had opifast in the past and it has worked for me too..

Certain vitamin deficiencies can cause hair loss.

Talk to your GP about how to prevent it and make sure you lose weight in a healthy way.

Exercise bike and watching TV sounds like a good idea.

I am going to weigh myself every Saturday- I will not put my actual weight but will say if I was able to lose weight.
