    Thanks for the kind words everyone! I started lifting about 3 weeks into it, but the elliptical on day 1. First day, I could only handle 10 minutes on level 1 and thought I was gonna die.
    What I do:
    Elliptical gym machine 1 hr Tue-Sun
    At 320, switch to cycling on my Trek 500
    2 filtered containers water/day
    Daily salads/veggies


    Goals:

    Stop needing High Blood Pressure meds - DONE!
    Workout in a XXXL shirt
    - DONE!
    Workout in a XXL shirt
    Workout in a XL shirt
    270 on the scales

        Great Job on the weight loss!! And working out is sooooo important so kudos for the hard work. I've been working out steadily, 4-5 times a week with a trainer and although I've been traveling for the last few weeks, every day I either work out in a gym or hike, walk, swim or do whatever. While the weight loss is no longer as significant, it is amazing how I'm getting smaller. In fact, I just did a mall trip today to by another couple of pairs of pants and tops!

        Keep up the good work. As much as I've lost, I need to hear how others have succeeded too. It helps me to stay focused.

        When you are alone in your head, you are in a bad neighborhood.
