Thanks to r/loseit, I'm starting my journey.

Hey r/loseit I stumbled upon this subreddit a short while ago, and it helped me come to a conclusion. I'm tired of being fat. I'm currently at 275-ish pounds, 5'10 and a 20 year old dude. I've been overweight for the past decade and I've come to the realization this fat isn't going anywhere until I do something about it.
Seeing the amazing community of support and all the successful redditors has inspired me to take action, seeing that it is possible for real people to achieve real goals.
I'm doing elliptical training every day, avoiding processed food and eating slower so I don't binge. I'm also joining round 4 over at r/90daysgoal when it starts in June. Once I've made these things a habit I hope to start weight training too. My eventual goal is to be below 200 pounds.
Thanks r/loseit for being such a supportive environment, it makes it much easier to take this first step. I know I can do it.
TL;DR I've been overweight for a decade and r/loseit has motivated some life changes in me.
