Good going Large I wish you the best of luck with it and it is so worth it. I weighed around 230ish and when I couldn't make a run for something that was when I knew it was time to do something and I didn't go on any crazy diets just cut out fast food and soda that was a biggie for me lost 20 pounds almost right away from that alone. I started walking a lot then got a bicycle and that is what kept it off me. But keep at it and don't give up it is a lot of hard work but in the end you will look back one day and be like WOW!.
