    Cardio! Also, take the time to use myfitnesspal every day, it really helps to track and be responsible for what you're eating.

    Move more, eat healthier foods, and be patient! It'll happen, it's going to take some time though..

    I'm in the 180s and I'm hoping to get into the 140s!

    We can do this!

    I would say track all your food. everything adds up! and drink water and green tea instead of juice, soda or any other type of drinks. Add me as a friend :) I'm 5'5 and have about 50lbs to lose :)

    You should eat less and exercise more. :) As far as workout programs and stuff, there are a lot of good workout DVDs on the market if you don't want to join a gym. I'm not sure what equipment you already have.

    I started at about the same place and I'm at 149 right now after 6 months. My original goal was 140, but now I'm going to shoot for 130.

    I know this will sounds trivial, but the keys for me were to develop a routine (regular exercise time, "fall-back" healthy meals) and to NEVER QUIT. You will reach plateaus (and you can get past them), you will get tired or frustrated or discouraged, but you will also have some amazing successes. I can't tell you how good it felt to buy size 10 pants that weren't tight or to get under 150 (barely). I eat practically the same thing for breakfast every day and no matter what else I do, I try to make sure that my pedometer reads at least 10,000 steps before I go to bed. It also helps to look at the succeses of others on this site and just be inspired.

    You only need to go as far as your MFP friends if you need support.
