Default Not exactly a fat chick

I'm more of a fat man but I hope you all wont hold that against me. I am 30 years old and way 341 lbs. I come to you all because I am going to need help. I have a dream I need to serve my country and in order to do that I will have to lose around 120 pounds or 14-15% of my body fat.

I find myself here because I believe If I join a community like this one it will help me stick with my goals and not give up. I am going to need a support structure and this seams like a good place.

Welcome to the forum! What an admirable dream you have. Your goal is very attainable, many people have lost that and more on this site.
If you want some inspiration, I recommend reading the blog Ben Does Life. He is a young man, probably very close to your age who lost 120 or so lbs. He is really into running now but I am sure that you will find inspiration from his blog. You can find him on FB too.
Best of luck to you!!!
