So i made it to the gym today. I pulled 20 minutes on the exercise cycle. I did 3 sets of 20 reps on the crunch machine at 50lbs tension and walking a mile. I just weighed myself and I am at 397 lbs. I suspect it is goign to flucuate some more so I am not putting to much stock in that number.

Just don't get discouraged if you should discover you start gaining weight, first. On a consistent workout routine the body starts building muscle before it starts consuming fat, and muscle weighs a good bit more than the latter. Consistency is the key, however. In no time that muscle will start consuming a good deal more calories on its own even at rest, so build as much muscle as you can manage--just be careful while you workout.

One of the reasons I am concentrating more on cardio is well I have a fair amount of muscle as is. I am doing some strength training cause well it is part of a well rounded work out, but I am mainly concerned with getting my heart rate up. and jumpstarting the metabolism. Still I will gain some muscle and i am good with that.

Well done! Seeing the results that way really help you to persevere, I find. I've made an Excel spreadsheet so I can watch mine on a chart.

the calorie-count site has a weight tracker as well.
