Where do I start?

[Code 1]

Hiya everyone,

Well I turned 17 the other day and I really need to do something. I am 22 & a half stone and 5ft 10. My BMI is around 44 and I need to get it to about 33ish. That means I need to lose around 5 stone!

I need to get a diet plan sorted and also start exercise at the local gym again (is this safe at my weight?)

I just don't know where to start

Hi Hun, Welcome to Minimins.

First of all, well done for making a decision to do something about losing some weight.

There are loads of ways to make a start, and combined with exercise is a good idea, as long as you start off lightly and not try and run a marathon.

Its always a good idea to get checked out by your GP when starting a weight loss programme, and often they have good idvice too.

Have you looked at weight wathchers, slimming world, or one of the other classes, the support you can you can get is invaluable.

Good luck on your journey, and holler if you need anything x
