    I just came across your post & believe it or not when I started last week I weighed in at my highest weight of 248lbs, same as you. I"m also 5'6 & want to get down to approx 150lbs. Its overwhelming at times but now that I've seen your pictures I see its possible. Thank you for posting! Great job!!

    welll done, You are a true inspiration to someone like me who is just starting out.
    How often did you walk? Every day or just a few times a week?

    Every day, started off at 30 minute walks and then increased to an hour when 30 minutes seemed too easy. Added some elliptical in when the weather started getting cold and I couldn't go any faster on my walks without changing over to running.

    The thing that keeps me exercising is, instead of listening to music, I listen to audiobooks. They help keep me engaged and distracted, and if it's a particularly good/interesting book, the only way I'll know what will happen next is to keep up with the exercise. This probably doesn't work for everyone, but it has for me. :)

    Thanks for all the kind words everyone, and if you're someone who is starting out and needs friends/motivation, I plan on keeping on logging, so feel free to send me a friend request.

    Good job on the religious food logging. Gives me hope of where I could be at the end of 2013.
