400 lb goal!!!

My Wife and I are planning to lose half of our body weight. We are a young couple, I'm 29 and she's 24. We decided a couple of nights ago, that we needed a change. I have been overweight most of my life, especially when puberty hit. I used to be able to play sports, I loved playing soccer, football, basketball, softball, you named it , i played it. Now I'm barely able to get up and down twelve steps at work without breathing heavy. It gets depressing when you dont feel like having the energy to do anything. We just want to get our lives back and be able to do everything. We want to be able to see our future kids have kids. I want to be able to run again. We want to have decades of success instead decades of Doom, like another poster said. We plan to have a website up soon and we will let you know how we are doing on our goal of losing half of our bodies.
