    I suggest you start with a small goal (getting under 250 per say) and then go from there. I would also speak to your doctor for they will be able to calculate what the best BMI goal is for you to be considered normal weight. While you are there I would get a body fat calculation to track your progress.

    Many people focus too much on the weight on the scale and forget about how their body looks. Personally, I believe that it is more important to LOSE FAT and GAIN MUSCLE than it is to just "lose weight." I would also suggest taking initial measurements and taking a photo of yourself each week to see progress. Hope this helps :)
