@The Snitch, yeah, true on all accords I suppose. Everyone starts off at different levels though. It is expensive, but so is eating out, and buying useless crap you don't need.
Getting into shape.

Crossfit isnt for those getting in shape...Its for thous already in shape, the ultimate in general fitness.
I suggest notice how loose your shirt and jeans are getting
it's better then counting the pounds.

So before anyone saw anything and since I edited my post I will post it again.
The scale works and it says I weigh 321 lbs. 50 lbs. more than I thought I weighed and I am now twice as far from my goal of 220 lbs. than I was before. I know I have lost weight the last 4 weeks, but to still be this far, it is rather shocking and I have to wonder if I can ever get down there.
I don't even look like I weigh 321 lbs. I look like I weigh 50 lbs. less and it has felt that way to me for the longest time, but today that was basically all I could think about and it felt like everything was showing me that I am a complete fat ass.

Yup you are a fat ass but the good thing is you're doing something about it. My friend Ritchie was a bit over 500 lbs when he started. It took time but he had such a great gift. Weekly he got on that scale and was a bit lighter. The joy apparent on his face as he saw even the smallest improvement was just great to see. You have that same power so use it.
its very doable. anyone can change. my screename is bigmoe because i once weighed 310lbs. i now weigh 235lbs, and am in the shape of my life, and hoping to be 210 by this time next year, and hopefully for the rest of my life.
If i remember right your bike wasnt a great one. You can find TONS of cheap used bikes on Craigslist right in your town. Hell you might even find yours =)

It wasn't great, but I had $50 of safety lights and a new seat I bought last year on top of it and i intended to give it to my youngest brother when I got a new one. Basically I have to spend the money on a bike sooner than I wanted rather than waiting until after I got my computer.

Okay biking is possible again, cops found my bike, it was in a "mentally unstable" person's house that they got a call to go to for a completely different reason. That is a load of my shoulders and a load onto my legs.

Biked 10.2 miles in 45 minutes (definitely my best record, especially right off the bat), 3 sets of barbell bench presses 15/15/20 at 50 lbs., 20 barbell squats at 50 lbs., and 50 crunches. All this in 1 hr and 30 min. I sort of feel like passing out a little, but that will pass.
