Keep us updated if you decide to take the fight. I've lost 45 pounds in six months, but I also lost a lot of my strength and muscle in the process. I would reccomend laying off any kind of heavy weightlifting. Stick to circuits if you do work out and do very light leg workouts, if any. If you run or do cardio, let that be your leg workouts. If you got tree trunk legs, weight will drop quickly the leaner you get them. I would advise you to eat very light dinners no later than 630 all depending on what time you go to bed. Of course no processed sugar, which may have been a key factor in your "weight gain". Drink tons and tons of water, helps curb your appetite and flushes out the gunk. Also, if you handle it, sprints. Either at a track or on the treadmill. Run a lap as fast as you can then walk a lap. Do this for a mile then build up to three miles. Try sprints for 30mins then stair climber for another 30 minutes. Weight lifting will help especially if you don't lift weights at all. Just keep the weight reasonably light and the reps up. Good Luck
