Starting off on a long weight loss process

Options
Hello, I weight 389 pounds! I really need to lose this and have started to be very serious about it. I have officially started Monday of this week and right now and try to consume at the most, 2000 calories a day. I also walk approximately 2.4km or 1.5 miles DAILY.

I'm from Brampton, ON, which is a suburb of Toronto. In the kind of suburban landscape I am in, you basically need to use a vehicle to get around anywhere, and after time, it can make you bigger.

I am absolutely serious about losing this weight, because this is not good.

    Feel free to add me! I'm 48, and live in the UK. I've been using MFP for five months and it's been of enormous value>

    You can add me too if you like! I'm in France but my lovely step mum lives just outside of Toronto. I love it there!

    Good luck with your weightloss.
