We all have to start somewhere.My goal is to take it one meal at a time. Watching everything I put in and how much I do to be able to move. I know my long term goal but every day is one step closer to that goal. Best of luck. We all have to take care of the one body that was given to us.

Good luck, Mark, you can most definitely do it.
Others here have started at similar or even higher weights, and reached their goals, and so can you.
Gather a good set of friends around you for support and encouragement, remember to consider this a lifestyle change, and not a diet, and work on changing things one step at a time until it becomes a natural part of your day to day living to make mostly healthy choices.
And read, read, read, there is a lot of useful information around the forums, amidst the nonsense.0 -
Good Luck Mark! You can do it! I love how everyone is so positive here! It makes me feel not so alone
I'd love some friends and if anyone wants to join a good group on FB it's called Eat To Live! We just focus mostly on healthy foods, supplements, alternative recipes, motivation, etc... 0 -
I understand the challenge you have. I need to lose 172 pounds. But we both just have to do it one day at a time! You can do this!0

Welcome to MFP! well done for taking steps to get healthier. You'll see changes soon that hopefully will keep you logging on and losing slowly but surely. I have a lot to lose too started at over 100lbs but for once I feel like being a healthy weight is achievable. I wish you the very best on your weight loss journey, you've made the best decision to come here.0

Hi Mark...... I started at 560 lbs. and could not walk. so I know the road you are taking and anything is possible if you put your mind to it.... I keep my friends list low cause I like to interact with my peeps but feel free to add me..... I add people when I clean up my friends list when I have people that haven't log in for over a month. I just cleaned up my FL last night and was adding Peeps today....... Best advice I can give is just take this one day at time to start, no point in looking beyond today, keep it simple and do everything you can do to be successful today and worry about tomorrow when it gets here.... :drinker:0

Mark, I started right before last Thanksgiving at 438 lbs at the doctors scale. There are a number of us on the Let's Lose 100+ group. Feel free to lurk, or join, find a fit here, there are some great folks on here as you have seen.

Congratulations on taking the first step Mark. I'm new to MFP also, and will try to add you if I can figure out how. If you know, add me also.0

Hey Mark. You can totally do this. Once you get started, the pounds come off pretty quickly...relatively speaking. Good luck. 0

Hi Mark! Better late than never, really! Feel free to add me, as I'd love to help give you support as you go. No matter how determined you can be, motivation from those you are acquainted with always help. c: You have all the support from us, and remember to stay strong and positive!0
