Okay, so... noob here. My apologies for such a long post. I've been sort of dieting on and off for a good 10-11 months now. I'm 21 years old, 6'5" and I was 300 pounds when I first started everything. A friend of mine at work introduced me to grapefruit and from that moment I was hooked. I started bringing my lunches to work, and I was losing 3-5 pounds a week with no added exercise. Before I knew it, I was down to 270 and people started commenting on how much better I looked. I continued and it started to become harder to lose weight. I slowly broke 260, and it took forever to break 250. I'm currently at about 245 pounds and I've hit a brick wall. I want to exercise, but I'm often exhausted when I get home from work because I'm on my feet all day. I also have asthma, and I don't have much money so I tend to cheap out on groceries. I'd like to get down to 220 pounds but I know it's going to take some work. I'm hoping that maybe some people on here can give me a little push on the back to help me reach my goal and give me some advice and motivation since I obviously need it.
