I just thought I'd join the fatty's here since I'm currently embarking on a bit of weight loss, and publicly stating it can only help. About a week ago I weighed 229.. I'm 6'2".. and my target weight is 205. I don't really like cardio activities, but I really enjoy lifting weights. I lettered 4 years in swimming in HS, so since I know how to do that, I should use that i guess. (not thrilled about it as I was a a sprinter mostly, and I don't like the stink and dry skin that goes along with swimming)...

Food-wise, I need to work at eating less food (especially in the evenings), my wife is still boob-feeding the baby, so she's ALWAYS hungry, and it's hard to resist. I've always been a big fan of eliminating sugars and processed food from my diet, but I have to bring in to question the effect of gorging quite so much on hamburgers and such on one's cholesterol, blood pressure, etc. I'm more interested in creating a sustainable, sensible, life-long healthy lifestyle... not just losing a ton of weight super fast.

As of yesterday I weighed 226, and I'd like to be down to 210 by Christmas, I think this is actually feasible, since I've done so very little physical activity in the last 2 years or so. GL to all...
