Looking to lose around 60 lbs - anyone else!!??

43 year old married father of two teens here.
I started mid January 2012 just logging EVERYTHING I ate just to see how bad my diet was. January 31st I started dieting.
260 was my starting weight. Currently at 242. My initial goal is 199, just to get out of the 200's.
After reaching that goal I will reevaluate my fitness and weight goals.
Some thoughts I have are doing 5k's, 10k's, half marathon, full marathon, mud/warrior runs and maybe even a triathalon. Whether my body will allow races to happen is a another story. If I can't do it then so be it but I will still be at a healthy weight and possibly be an inspiration to others.
I can already tell I have more stamina and strength.

I'm looking to lose that, and probably more! Good luck to you and stay strong and positive! I keep having to stop myself from eating unhealthy things all the time!

I'd LOVE to be friends with you!!! I HAD 72 lbs to lose (started January 7th of this year) I don't have that much anymore... but I still have about 30-40 lbs to lose, and I'd love to lose this weight together!


Everyone feel free to add me! The more friends the merrier!
