Anybody start with an excessive amount to lose?

I was wondering if anyone started with a ton to lose and managed to get to their goal. I have about 300lbs to LOSE before I get to my goal and I'm wondering if anyone has successfully done so when looking at such a huge amount. It's intimidating to me sometimes, and I'm just starting out. I don't want to get discouraged already!

    I am very happy it went well. The best thing I did was the band. Just remember to follow your doctors rules not some else's.

    I have to agree with everyone.....my starting weight was 316.

    Little by little......some days are a struggle.....but I look to the future, being able to keep up with my kids.

    Keep positive
