    Sometimes you just have to do what you know needs doing, even if it's a big slog to start out with.

    It took you a while to get to this point, and it's not going to go away overnight. But it will never go away at all if you don't take steps to change. Time is going to go by whether you change or not, and you can't change the past...but in THIS moment, right now, you have a choice. Take the choice that's going to make you happier as time goes by.

    You CAN do this, and there are lots of people here to help support you.

    Be patient, don't starve yourself, and look at the small numbers. You might not think you can lose 100lbs, but you can lose 10lbs. And then you can lose another 10, and before you know it you'll be there.

    Above all -- BE PATIENT. I started at 274. I have been there. It sucks. But starving yourself, obsessing over a single day of overeating, torturing yourself over having a dessert -- THIS WILL GET YOU NOWHERE. Just be patient, stick to your goals more often than not, and don't beat yourself up over mistakes.
