I need as much help as possible from everyone here,i want to lose some fat and also some weight, i am 6'2 1/2" and weigh a flabby 265 lbs. i dont have a diet, and don't know where to start, any help would be greatly appreciated, i am ready to get serious and lose some weight, i just need a plan, i wanna slim down cuz next year is my high school senior trip and i am going to Cancun and i dont wanna look all nasty and fat. Help me please anyone.
 
Well, its gonna be a new lifestyle that might be hard to get used to. Its not 15lb you can fix quickly.
Your gonna have to cut things out of oyur diet and implement others. Its really not easy for new enthusiasts.

You dont have to swith to hardcore dieting like the pro athletes but theres still alot of guidlines.

# 1.STart reading all the food labels.

Avoid:Fast foods, all of them.
Avoid fruits (take multivitamins)
Increase vegetable intake.
Decrease meal size yet increase meals per day.
Very important: When having carbohydrates, avoid fat. And when having fat avoid carbs. Meaning in each meal its gonna be either a carb/protein or fat/protein combination. Its not always possible to eat this way if you l ive with ur parents but you can separate foods from lunch and have them for dinner, think.
Eat for what ur about to do and not what you just did (this doesnt apply to the post workout meal which should be whey and fruits for example)
Keep breakfast low fat, high fiber, high protein.
Pre workout have some rice and beans or other complex carbs and I already explained thepost workout.... the rest of the day's meals will be fat and protein basically. This will ensure theres no extra fuel (calories) floating around gettin stored all day every day, yuck.

Do the weights not too late at night, to ensure your body has cooled down properly and that the sleep you get is maximal. If your serious, do atleast 30min of cardio after the weights. Since your on a toning plan, you will want to keep rest in between sets under a minute and keep the weight on any specific excersize high enough that you cant do a 9th rep (maxing out at 8 or 9)
 
ya cool cool, thanks for the advice first_athlete, i appreciate it, if possible can you like give me some example, like how a normal day should be like, cuz i have no knowledge on how to lose fat and lose weight. Again thanks first_athlete, i already have been avoiding fast food since before i posted, and i have been only drinking water for a week, but i dont know about the meals and wht size they should be.
 
like the first athlete said, start paying attention to the labels.

Get a notebook and log everything you eat for a week or two without changing your diet. Get all the nutritional breakdown from the foods you ate (cals, fat, carb, protein) and then look at where the places you need to change are. One of the first thing you'll wnat t od ofor sure is cut al lsugars (sodas, candy, cookies, etc...) and start drinking tons of water. It's a tough change at first but it gets easier after a couple of weeks.
 
I dont like to be told exaclty what to eat so I dont liek telling it to other either but Ill try to break it down in a way that you can still improvise on your own.

1)Breakfast : Largest meal and most important of the day to ensure further meals be kept smaller. This is not true for everyone but it works for me. Since your sheding fat, I would keep it at or under 600 calories. If your lifting weights, whey powder (30-40g) in the morning is optimal since its absorbed the fastest out of any other kind of protein. This reverses the environment in your body from catabolic to neutral or anabolic. You want high fiber, things like high fiber cereals. My fav are raisin bran and oatmeal squares. Trust me, compared to other pro's diets, these sound like cheat foods, so be thankful you dont have to eat str8 up oatmeal, which is the single most disgusting shit. Skim milk is fine, fruits (most standard fruits are 100cal, not a whole watermelon of course), coffee is ok, eggs (throw out half or 3/4th of the yolks), each white is 25cal and each yolk is 50 cal(thats where the fat is)
2)Snack: protein bars, a can of tuna (start using lite mayo), one fruit (keep this snack under 150calories or 200max)
Lunch: Try to get in some kind of meat, choices varying from any kind of fish, steak, chicken, any thing that looks lean basically. Have carbohydrtaes in moderation (in total about 1.5times the size of your computer mouse), choices in any combination are rice, all kind sof beans, vegetables, a big as you want salads, yams, sweet potato.
Preworkout: 2 fruits, or rice and beans, or any of the above carbohydrates, 15-25g of whey.
POst workout: 40-50g of whey, or eggs. These need to be absorbed quickly for the better. But if you cant have that for any reason then any protein can do. Its extremely important that you eat as soon as u can after wkout. If you dont like diet sodas, then you can cheat once a day here and have your soda or skittles, fatfree candy etc. Have about 50-75grams of total carbs here, most should be sugars(as you will now see on the labels.) You can choose to have fruit instead.
Snack#2: Peanuts, any kind of nuts, some more tuna with lite mayo.
DInner: Nice steak or any of the lunch choices for protein. CHoose between having fat like egg with the yolks, or not so lean meat, cheese,, hell i dont know, just find out the nutrition facts and insert whatever fat containing product, as long as it doesnt have carbohydrtaes. OR... choice #2 would be small amount of veggies or a salad. No fat dressing of course.


Just put 2 and 2 together and follow these guides and you will see results if oyu do it right. Rememebr to be patient and you have to find out your maintenance calories intake(calculated after or whether or not you expend calories at the gym) and subtract atleast 500calories and up to 1000.

You might want to keep daily intake non constant, like for instance 500 under one day, 1000 under the next, 700 under the next, even 200-300 over in some days. This contributes to avoid metabolism downregulation that results in plateauing and failure.

outta breath, some one pick it up from here
 
cool, cool, so would this be good, for a day??
Wake up: Run for about 25-30 minutes
Breakfast around 7: Raisin Bran or Oatmeal, 2 egg whites, and a banana
Snack at around 9:30 or 10: protein bar, or an orange or grapefruit
Lunch around 12:30: Grilled Chicken salad with no dressing and little bit of lemon
Pre Workout around 2:30: 2 bananas and Peanut Butter
Workout from 2:30: Run 30 minutes, lift for about an hour and a half
Post Workout around 4:30: a diet soda and an orange
Dinner at 7:30: Grilled Chicken and veggies
tht sound good, or should i add more workout or meal time difference or wht?? i am gonna buy some whey as soon as possible, but i cant get any for like a week or so cuz my mom is having surgery this week. Also, which kind of whey is better for weight loss??? Whey Protein Isolate(WPI) or Whey Protein Concentrate(WPC)?? Thanks for your guys help again.

cool, i don't really like regular soda unless its sprite or cherry 7up and they taste pretty good diet so i'll just with those diet and does everything else for the meal plan look good or should i change anything???
 
No peanut butter preworkout. Bro Imma feed you some Ritalin so you start concentrating on what your reading [=0) Peanut butter is a fat, and bananas are carbs. In the first post I told you to try not to mix carbs and fat in the same meal. And whey is a must for me post workout
