| Good luck Prinz and NYDetailer. I agree with those above that stated resistence training is a good weight loss method. The only thing I have to add is to drink lots of water, keep your sugar intake down and stop eating "empty" calories (items that have fat, sugar and calories but no real nutritional value).
I'm 5'8" and back in graduate school I was lifting hard and eating right and I weighed ~ 220 and could eat 6000 calaries a day without getting fat. I'm currently 175 - 180 but around 10% bodyfat. I still goto the gym daily but don't workout nearly as serious as I used too (ruptured disc in back-OUCH). |
