Fat Guy in a LIttle Coat

Options
Just started using MFP this week. A friend showed me to the site and things kind of took of from there. I am looking for a few people that would help keep me motivated. As I am sure the times ahead are going to be filled with all sorts of challenges. Currently I am 6' 3" and 340 pounds, but am wanting to lose at least 100 pounds maybe more, I want to get down to a normal size person.

    Welcome man, and you got this! For me, the most important part was making the decision to do it, and remember why I made the decision when the going got tough. I was 6'6", 490 when I started, and I got down to 230 before I decided to start putting on more muscle. I'm right around 240 now.

    The impact it has made on my life and my families life has been amazing. More than worth all the hard work that it took.

    Feel free to add me.
