>>67396 I am the guy that posted the diet thing, this might also help you a bit. I am yet to start my workout due to injurys (broken bone in foot), but I have it all worked out.
1) Calculate your BMR (http://health.discovery.com/tools/calculators/basal/basal.html) This site explains it but basically that is how many calories your body burns just by existing each day. (Most of that is from the energy needed by your muscle; 50 calories per pound of muscle) 2) Spend one week eating healthy food AT or below that amount of calories. Spread it out across 5-6 meals. This will wake up your metabolism. If you don't exercise now don't even worry about exercising for this first week, you will fail if you set your goals TOO high. 3) Give yourself a cheat meal at some point in the week. Try to last as long as you can, but if you're going to fail, go ahead and eat whatever you want. And by meal I mean a meal, not 2 bags of doritos covered in cheez wiz with 6 liters of soda topped off with 2 dozen krispy kreme donuts. Go to your favorite restaurant or something and eat a meal of whatever you want. 3) Figure out a diet somewhere around 200 calories less than your BMR. Weight train 3 times a week. Do cardio on the off days if you want and once you start to get into shape look into HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training)
