Comments on: 1284 Calories Burned in 99 Minutes http://www.344pounds.com/2009/05/1284-calories-burned-in-99-minutes/ I lost nearly 150 pounds by counting calories. I once weighed 344.2 pounds, now around 200. My story has been told on CNN, CBS, and Newsweek and will soon be in a book.

Starting on the treadmill can help you to control your pace so you don't burn out too quickly. ( I get the feeling you'd probably start out too fast and get really frustrated! ) If you google 'your town' + running, you'll probably find several clubs you can join. All of these clubs will have at least a few beginners in them. I agree with the others that running is a good way to change things up.

Maybe something like kickboxing would be fun for you? (And I'll second investing in a heart rate monitor!) Does your gym offer classes? Maybe something like kickboxing would be fun for you?

It took a while to get used to the higher impact, especially since I tore a portion of an ACL a few years back. It is rewarding sometimes to get outside when the weather is nice. Louisiana kinda sucks for outdoor running though. We get 6 good weeks of weather all year. The rest is heat / humidity, or cold /humidity.
