I have about 200 pounds to lose.
My posture is bad because of my size, bad habits and working at a desk.

What exercises should i be doing to correct my posture as I lose weight?

    Definitely work on your rhomboids and scapular retraction with rows, even pushups. And I think pretty much any exercise that fires the lats by keeping the shoulders down and back will help with your posture. Core exercises are always good for your posture as well.

    Definitely Pilates, you can get a DVD (I've found the Darcy Bussell one good), go to classes or find loads of free stuff on Youtube.
