Happy New Year!

Welcome to r/loseit. We know this is a time of year when lots of people are making resolutions to finally tackle their health and fitness. If you’re one of them, great! We’re glad you’re here!

Here is a friendly guide to help you (as a new user) get the most out of this subreddit, to help you reach your goals. This is a quick overview of what kinds of resources we have, and what kind of posting behavior we expect.

First, check out the quick start guide. It is short, and will get you started with the basic information you need to get started. Find it HERE.

Are you looking for a place to post your resolution? Post it HERE!

Are you looking for a place to post every day? Check out the daily accountability threads, that are linked in the sidebar. Accountability/Progress posts made more frequently than every 30 days (outside of the designated threads) will be removed.

Are you looking to add friends on various weight loss tools (Loseit, MyFitnessPal, etc)? Look out for our Track with Me Thursday threads. Soliciting members to join accountability groups/discord servers (or otherwise asking for personal information) is strictly prohibited outside of Track with Me Thursday.

Are you looking for a longer commitment? Check out the Lose it Challenges (find the sign-up stickied to the top of the subreddit starting in 2021), and sign up!

Check back often to the subreddit homepage, to see stickied posts on r/loseit: we will be highlighting reoccurring threads there, as they come up. As a sampling of what you can expect: find motivation from reading The Century Club on Thursdays (for users who have lost/need to lose 100 pounds or more), connect with other new parents in our Wednesday "Parent's Corner" support thread, or chat with other aspiring calorie-conscious chefs during our Wecipe Wednesday thread.

Still have questions? We’ve got answers! Check out our daily Q&A thread HERE.

Please note: a lot of the things mentioned above are best accessed on the desktop site. We strongly recommend checking r/loseit out on desktop (especially if you've only ever used the mobile site)!

Looking for more motivation and inspiration? Check out this post from your friend and mine, the incredibly successful u/hxcjosh23!

Still want more? Keep your reddit-dial tuned to r/loseit, as the fantastic Catherine and Donald Wygal from the We Only Look Thin podcast will be here in r/loseit on Saturday, January 16 2021 (beginning at 3PM Eastern Standard Time) to do an AMA event! Never heard of 'em? No problem! Check out their episode Comin' in Hot, which talks about some of the common pitfalls that can happen when you (over-)enthusiastically start a weightloss journey.

We wish you the best of luck in your journeys, and hope that you will use the resources of this subreddit. Here’s to a healthy 2021!
