    thats a good way to look at things! always remember, loosing 1 pound is 1 pound of fat that is lost, that is you your 1 pound closer to your fat loss goal!

    No, you aren't the only one. When I look at how much I need to lose to become "normal" I find it discouraging. So I don't think about it much, but take it one day at a time.
    Don't worry about being "normal" - normal is boring! Just work on being healthy. You said it best - take it one day at a time.

    I was 305 on December 26. 298 when I officially started in February. I had been doing a bit of exercise since December. As of Tuesday I am 270. You will find lots of motivation and support here. Good luck.

    Not the only one, dear. I started in January at 354, now I'm 10lbs away from being in the 200s. It's a hard road because you have so much further to go and so much more work to be done, but it's not impossible.

    I started on this site last January weighing 375lbs, now I'm 275lbs and hoping to be less on weigh day tomorrow.

    Do have a read through some of the success stories, it's amazing how much weight people have lost using this site.



    Good luck!


    That is just plain AWESOME

    No way! I weighed after Christmas 300 lbs. That is the highest I said I would ever get to. The beginning of March I decided to do something about it. I started counting calories and walking 2 miles a day. Then last week I bought a Elliptical machine and my goal is to use it twice a day. I weighed this morning and I now weigh 383. If I can do it, I know anybody else can to. I would love to be your friend and help support each other during our life changing journey.



    do you mean 283? =)
