Hi Jason, the secret to weight lost is really simple, change what you eat and drink, cut carbohydrate intake down to under 20g a day zero if you can. Keep calories in lower than calories burnt.
No bread,pasta,rice,biscuits,sweets,cakes,cereals,fizzy drink or beer. Also cut out fruit and juice. Can eat lots of salad, fish chicken and meat. Eggs and bacon ok. Drink lots of water. Have spirits if you need some booze.
Keep bocking, good exercise to help things go.. The first week is the hardest but after 2 weeks all the cravings for the junk food go. Weight loss is really quick.You can still eat burgers just leave the bread.
Just google low carb,high protein diet.
No reall a bock related comment but you did ask. good luck
Pete
