I am 6'2" and a slice of pie under 280lbs.........
I am aiming for that 20lbs in 3 months with more to follow after that. I really think that this is an honest attainable goal. I want to lose more than the initial 20 but there isn't an "advance to go" card when it comes to weight loss.
Tomorrow will be the final day that I will be consuming any type of soft drink. I bought a bunch of different flavored Crystal Lights today that will be replacing all the damned pop I drink in a day. I am also going to give rice cakes a try, white cheddar ones to be exact. If I can replace the pop and junk food ( Doritos, Fritos, Combos, etc etc) with healthier choices I think I am already ahead of the game.
I am also going to start taking a multi vitamin which I heard can help combat the fatigue from initial workouts. In my case I don't think it could hurt that much since I am not a big vegetable eater and have probably been lacking some vitamins in my diet for a very long time as it is.
Tomorrow also starts my visits to the gym again. I plan on hitting up a fair amount of cardio between the elliptical and stationary bikes and maybe some light free weight work too.
I'd also like Sundays to be our official weigh in day if that is cool with everyone that is planning on participating.
