I would try to get more cardio in, but my endurance isnt the greatest (had a gym card for the last little while, but school has killed me.)

Oh yeah, I have no idea what to do about supplements and stuff, and I can't really afford it either, any effective cheap stuff would be good. If not, just go with lots of veggies/fruits and lots of protein while avoiding stuff like white rice?
Any other things to help my cut down my weight would be awesome
Thanks | You can't target where you lose fat. Just increase your cardio, do some high intensity workouts and plan a good diet.

If only more people realized this, thinking 30 mins of elliptical will burn off their Big Mac meal.

cardio generally is good for strenghening and coniditionin the heart and lungs and the body's ability to become a bette oxygen transport system... the best way to burn/reduce calories is to eat less... to a certain degree.. working out, esp with weights and resistance, will increase your efficiency in terms of BMR

if you're gonna drink v8, might as well get the high fiber one. but it's not really a good substitute for real veggies. pretty much water, sugar and a little bit of veggies. dwight schrute would be disappointed in the amount of beets in there.
just buy a bag of frozen broccoli and steam it. easy to eat on the go. takes 5 minutes to cook. the time spent on this forum, you could be eating your veg.
anyone else see this report http://www.cbc.ca/canada/british-col...ts-seized.html |

Just came back from my first training session at Gold's. I was limited with time so I didn't do too much.
First thing I wanted to do was dead lifts on the lifting platform, but just my luck some guy wanted to do curls in the rack. I figured he was a big guy, so np BUT he only put 30 lbs on the bar for all of his reps... blarg.
Anyways I did DLs on beside the platform. I really like the noname bumper plates, but it will be limiting when I go with heavier weight.
