Let's try this again. WITH BETTER RESULTS

Not new to the site, just returning to give it another go.

Two years ago i signed up here and began to work on it and had lost 70lbs. I plateaued and just couldnt figure out how to break thru so what did i do? I gave in and put all that stuff back and then some until i maxed out 2 weeks ago at 351lbs. Six days ago I made the decision to to not just try it on my own so I spoke with a local diet clinic and got some dietary info and advise among other things and will be checking in with them every month to see where i am and how i'm doing and make any changes that need to be made. Turns out that between a doctor visit the week before and my initial meeting with the clinic i had already lost 5 lbs. Due to various appointments last week i was unable to start walking until this past Saturday. I'm discovering that the shoes I have now are not exactly the best choice for walking a few miles a day. They're nice for hiking, but not so much for relatively flat asphalt. so the search is on for a good comfortable AFFORDABLE walking shoe. THis may also hinder my walking efforts because I'm really not into causing stress fractures in my feet.

As of now, since my clinic visit, I have lost another 5lbs. I have a very long way to go to get where I want to be but I am hopeful that I will get there and stay there this time.
