A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step....... 330 lbs is my current weight. I have to lose 1/2 of my weight....165 lbs Wow..... That is a lot of weight to lose to get to my goal weight of 165 lbs. I am thankful I am 5'9" it could be much worse if I were 5 ft. Still..... At 1 lb a week I will reach my goal weight of 165 lbs on 01/18/2017 At 2 lbs a week I will reach my goal weight of 165 lbs on 06/28/2015 No wonder it has taken me this long to get started. First goal is 5% or 16.5 lbs I just swallowed my first little blue pill! Wish me and Belviq luck! First weigh-in, the day before Thanksgiving.
