Great weight loss forums

Tweet

Until recently, I've been a bit worried about using weight loss forums. I figured that they'd either want to sell you something, or be full of zealots who'd make you feel about six inches tall for being overweight in the first place. Last week, a friend recommended a forum she'd found, and said that it was great fun, and she'd picked up a lot of useful information, as well as motivation to keep going. Although the forum is run by a fitness coach and nutritionist, the guy actually has a sense of humour, and he realises that everyone is human, with human failings, so there's no laying on of guilt trips, or making you feel inadequate for eating an extra calorie or two. Being the cynical soul I am, I thought this sounded too good to be true, so I headed over to investigate. I'm not really much of a one for forums - apart from MyLot of course - so I wasn't expecting much. However, I was very pleasantly surprised. There's a lot of good advice there, and a real sense of community - just like MyLot in fact. Here's the link if you want to take a look: : http://www.fatlossforums.co.uk/ : This is not a referral link, and I get nothing from it, apart from the satisfaction of knowing I've pointed other MyLotters towards a useful site. So, can you recommend any good weight loss forums? Or are there any that are best avoided? I'm sure lots of us would like to hear your recommendations.
