I am in my mid 30's, I am an active dad, I play Music, coach my sons Baseball Team, volunteer fireman, and work in the construction industry. I have always been heavy, but I was recently featured on the front page of the local paper riding a fire truck next to Santa Clause in the Christmas Parade and I was actually bigger than Santa. I can just hear some kid looking at the paper asking his parent "Mommie, why is Santa riding the fire truck" and the mothers reply would be somthing like "Sweetie, its because that fat dude ate Rudolph"! I am tired all the time, and have diabetes and high blood pressure. My wife loves me no matter how big I am, but she is a thin woman and has to get embarased about being with me in public. I get sick when I look at myself wothout a shirt on in the mirror. We started a biggest looser at work yesterday, and I found this application on my Droid phone and think it will be quite helpful! 25% is my goal I am 268 and would like to get down to 200 in 25 weeks. that is 2.5 pounds a week, it is doable. I am concentrating on Calories and will attempt to loose by inpleminting a 1,500 calorie deficit a day...
