As of now doing one lap around the block I live on in a pair of worn out NB766. I am 5'10" and 252lbs trying to get back to 167lbs. What would be good shoes for a fat boy like myself motivated guy like me????

You might want to looking into the cool running website for beginning training programs also- this will help keep you motivated and most importantly prevent you from injuring yourself from running too hard too fast. As a fat 46 yr old myself, I've successfully used the Couch to 5K program (C25K) as many 1000's of other have had. It works- just follow the program and you'll be amazed at the results. About 3-4 months ago I couldn't run 100yrs but as of today I can run 4 miles easily and will be running 5K's http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/2/2_3/182.shtml Read all you can, but come back here- running ahead is the best site and you can log your progress here on this site.ASK questions and read the thread here- you'll learn alot for free.
