    Want to loose the weight so i can feel healthy, be around for my daughter in the future and to be able to feel good about myself.
    Eating plans are the calories given on this site for loosing the weight needed and also exercising 3 times a week with dvd's and treadmill, cycling out doors when the weather is better.

    Looking forward to the challenge as i will be doing a fun run for cancer in June so really want to run it this time and not walk.

    I want in too!

    screen name: tginnett
    starting weight is 245 (yesterday!)
    goal is 195 so 50 lbs exactly
    I want to lose so I can keep up with my son and I'm sick of the fat jokes.
    My strategy is to stick to my calorie goal, mainly by keeping the carbs reasonable and getting lots of exercise (swimming, cross-country skiing wile the snow is here, and weights).
    Thanks for doing this!
