Health Related Problems Due To Weight?

I don't know what happened, but for the past few years I've weighted about 300 pounds. Keep in mind that I'm only 5'10''. As for my health, it has plummeted. I feel uncomfortable in my skin, and it's hard to sleep at night. Forget about sleeping on my back, all the fat under my chin suffocates me. Going to the doctor's is nothing new to me these past 4 months - I've become very ill, and no doctor can figure out why. I feel like I can't breathe, my chest feels congested, and I'm having sharp pains in my chest. Now I'm starting to wonder if these health symptoms could be weight related. I was having health problems when I weight 280, which caused me to lose 40 pounds about 3 years ago. The only problem is that I've gained the weight back, plus more. Have any of you had problems like I am describing? Please do tell. I don't know what to do, my motivation and self esteem are shot. Even just sitting here, I feel wheezy and uncomfortable.

Weight could very well be the source of your health problems but it's suprising the doctor hasn't mentioned it...

Use how you're feeling as a source of motivation to lose weight...

What are you currently eating and what movement are you able to do? even if it's walking at a leisurely pace for 15 minutes a day - it's a start...
