    I started not far from where you are - I was 245 and sooo heading for 300. Then I lost three loved ones in as many years to heart failure. You would think that would have done it for me but it was not until I watched my dad 'crash' in my back yard (thankfully he is fine now). I watched him and all I could think was the next person to go down like that is going to be ME and while maybe I could 'live' with that I could not make my kids live with it. I started out Jan 6 2008 I am down almost 60 lbs. It all has to do with the math and this place is great for helping with that. You HAVE to brun more calories then you put in... do that and the weight DOES come off. Start out with little walks - do some extra house work -what ever it takes - as the lbs fall off I am finding I am more and more active. I now am an avid bike rider, joined a gym - and actually go to the gym several times a week- you can do this :heart: :happy:
