Yeah, I gotta start doing the bike thing. My best judgment has led me to eating less recently, and I'm already working hard during the day...and have gone from 315lbs @ 6' 2'' -to- 272lbs @ 6' 2 1/2''

I'm pretty sure If I implement some more aerobic type exercise into my daily regimen, I'll definitely get there.

Congrats on your first significant weight drop, wish you the best of luck.

congrats dude, i need to start working out and eating better. during the summer i drop alot of weight from my job but i need to start keeping that weight off in the winter too.

Awesome man! I'm currently slimming down, but toning up, so my weight'* been a bit of a see-saw after the initial 10lb loss.

Whatever you're consuming, try to spread it out along the course of the day, from wake-up to sleepytime. This way your metabolism is increased and your body'* internals are in contant busy mode while your awake.

Good luck with the diet just make sure you consume enough nutrients at least 1200 calories a day. I recently started a VLC diet and well at under 800 calories a day and eating no meat after a week it put me in the hospital. I am now on a 1500 calorie low fat diet but against the doctors orders I have still cut out meats.

I weigh a little more than you do so lets keep in touch and compare notes and whatnot on our progress. I find it much easier to diet when you do it with someone.

Good luck to you and be safe.

Update! 25 lbs total lost, I am now down to 240lbs, but still look fat as ever. My pants feel looser, and now I find the need to tighten my belt just a bit more.

I need to start riding my bike again, I stopped riding when my grandma went into the hospital due to my nerves being frazzled.

I AM still eating good though.

My 2 cents.
Remember that it has taken many years to gain it. Don't expect it all to come off in a few months.
Those people on "The Biggest Loser" have professional trainers workintg with them daily.
Way to go.....keep it up, but remember MODERATION when excercising

I am in a little different boat than you, I am trying to cut down to 185 from 215 to do Bodybuilding competitions in Nov or Dec.

I have lost 12 pounds within the last month (i am about 203) which is for me a hugh deal. Most of this is from the diet I am on, although I have been gaining muscle too since I work out 4 times a week. In body building its 70% diet 30% working out.

I would tell everyone you know about what you are doing so you get a little more motivation to continue riding your bike and what not, because you dont want to be a quitter in front of your friends. I did that and thats probly the only thing keeping me hitting the gym 4-5 times a week and still eating the way I do.

Another thing should help you out is small meals at least 6 times a day spread evenly apart. I am sure you know that though. Its amazing, when you do that you dont feel hunrgy anymore. Sometimes I even feel like skipping a meal (which I dont)
