I just want to say hi! After searching online for several hours to find a place that I can talk about ... well me.. and I guess my weight I found CPH and this is going to be my new home.

A little about me, I am 27(28 in June) with 2 beautiful daughters (2 and a half and 4 months old) I have been married for 6 years and have been with my wife for 9.

So going back to my 2 kids, I am today 302lbs and I really need to lose weight. Most people at work do not believe I am 300lbs as most of it is in my stomach. Knowing that I really do not want my kids growing up without me around I have decided to lose weight.

November 2008 I was 340LBS. I cut down on my food intake and have lost that weight. Today I have started P90X. I know it is for people who are "more fit" but if I take my time I will drudge through it and I look forward to the challenge. Even though I am fat exercise does not bother me, I play hockey and other sports as good as any average person.

After working out for an hour I had so much energy it wasn't funny. My 2 year old went through the first DVD with me and did most of the exercises too which I found so adorable (she can do more pushups than I can).

What I am hoping to do is use this as an online journal with updates every week. I might even post a before and after picture as well. Mostly I am just looking for encouragement from other people in the same situation. Yes I know I have the 2 kids and that should be enough, but people slip and I am no exception. However I think I am a changed man. I know I will not be "skinny" and will be very excited to see 250, but I am shooting for 200 over the next couple years. If I reach 200 before that even better.

Anyways my last piece of pizza :pizza: =)
