NOT HAPPY, but getting there...

Hey everyone I'm 23 and at 271 today, about a month ago I got very unhappy about my weight situation. I started to watch what I was eating and doing my best to count my calories and doing some walking around warehouse. I lost 10 lbs in 2 weeks and another 4 in the past week which is a good start. I've noticed my shorts are a lot looser and had to cut another hole in my belt. I've only been a member of this site/app for a week and it seems to help a lot with keeping track of what I eat. my goal for now is to get down to 225, which I haven't weighted since middle school. Any support or words of wisdom that anyone is willing to offer would be very much appreciated.
