Newbie Posting Privileges and Links Policy!

Hi there. I’m new to the site. Joined Slimming World back in August last year. Lost 2.5 stone so far with about another stone to go. Spent this evening listing clothes on eBay that I’m determined never to need again.

Hi all,
Another newbie here. I have just rejoined Slimming World I reached target in 2015 and managed to stay at target for two years, however, things went south and now I am back reading to lose just under 4 stone

I don't have much more weight to lose, but finding it difficult to stay on track now the end is in sight!
I was 69kg when I began last October, and I'm now 55kg.I want to lose another 5kg.

 

[AliGal]

Welcome all! What plan are you using, Tibby?

Hi AliGal.

I'm doing Slimming World aswell.

I lost 2 st around 2 years ago, but left group when I reached target, then slowly put it all back on, except for a few pounds. I began to lose it during lockdown last year, but only seriously since October. I seem to have hit a brick wall now though, and keep yo-yoing the same kg over and over, so thought I'd try joining an online forum for some moral support.

It's tough when that happens. Maybe having a diary would help - and join us on the Christmas and/or summer weight loss challenges so you have a weekly weigh in.

Welcome to MiniMins


When you are a newbie

You are in a group that has limited access until you reach 50 posts.

As a newbie you can post allowable links.

New*...Social Networks are now integrated into MiniMins.
Now with a click of a link you can share your recipes, successes, ups and downs, before and after photos etc.

This means you can now add Social Network Pages to your posts/diaries and if our members wish to follow you they can click on your link please do not solicit our members as that is just plain annoying and puts our members off visiting your page.

Members can post weight loss ticker link into your signature once you have 5 posts.

http://www.tickerfactory.com/ezticker/ticker_designer.php

You need the bb code here for ticker and graphics to work.

Once your reach 5 posts it may take about an hour for the site to upload your new privileges.


Once you reach 50 posts you will have access to Profiles and a bigger signature space, view/post in almost all of our forums apart from some private forums which require 50/500/1,500 posts to gain entry.

We provide Social Network Icon Buttons for your personal use and if members wish to follow you they can click on your Social Network Icon Button.

Social Network Icon Buttons can be found in your Profile.


We will not be implementing Private Messaging on MiniMins. If you wish you contact Admin please use the contact button at the bottom of the page.

MiniMins Blogs and Photo Gallery from the old site are now gone along with albums in your profile...we will not be adding these to this new site.

Please take note if your blog link lands on an advertisement, totting for emails/subscriptions or newsletters or asking to down load an app it will be removed.

Not Allowed: Threads/Posts with personal blog link soliciting members to visit their blog apart from on your own personal diary will be removed.

Threads/Posts with "Add Me" are not allowed and repeat offenders will be banned as this is consider spam! Moderating forums take time and we do not have the time to edit posts therefore they will just be deleted.

No. Go to your account details and you can add weight there.

 

[AliGal]

And you can go to https://www.tickerfactory.com/ to create a ticker. Cut & paste the bb code into your signature. Fyi, the ticker doesn't always update speedily - can have a delay. https://www.minimins.com/threads/weight-loss-tickers.364975/post-8071694

I am just starting out

Hi me too....I'm not particularly tech savvy so a bit daunting....but we are all here for the same thing...good luck Aniee x

 

[Kapow]

Same here, this forum takes a bit of getting used too but lots of advice and support.

 

[Lori-R]

It's tough when that happens. Maybe having a diary would help - and join us on the Christmas and/or summer weight loss challenges so you have a weekly weigh in.

Hi sorry to post on your thread but I have no clue how to make thread of my own...can you help please?

 

[AliGal]

No problem. First decide where you want to post. maybe you have a question for one of the forums (click the word forum on the top line next to home). Or perhaps you want a diary thread in WeMITT (we mean it this time) or weight loss diaries or say the Keto or Slimming World section.

Click the orange "Post thread" button top right and a new window will open. You type in a heading and then go into the section below called "discussion" to type what you want to say. Click the black button at the bottom right to post. Don't worry if you make a mistake - once posted, you can select an edit button to correct a typo etc.

Sometimes when you type a heading a list of other posts will pop up. That's just so you can see what other people have posted - helpful if you have a question. You can also just ignore them!

Any other questions just ask.
