Thanks for the question.
I think the first piece of advice for someone starting their weight loss journey is start small. Come up with 1 specific and measurable short term goal and ONLY FOCUS on that. For many people it's " no junk food" for 2 weeks. Nothing else matters at this point. Not how many workout sessions, how much protein, low carb, this diet that diet NOTHING. Once a simple goal like no junk food or go to the gym 2x a week is accomplished a few things will happen.
Firstly, you will feel great. You accomplished a goal and have made progress towards loosing weight. Second, you will feel motivated to set another goal and that's the magic sauce.
For the first few months every couple weeks progressivly add either exercise or nutrition goals to your plan and the process has begun.
That's the foundation of loosing weight.
The other super important thing is doing physical activity that you actually enjoy doing. If that's basketball, soccer, bike riding, walking, lifting weights whatever. The reason why I suggest this is because the only way to sustain physical activity is to do something you actually love. By starting there your relationship with "exercise" is all positive.
Outside of these suggestions it comes down to making your weight loss a priority, setting goals and busting your ass.
Hopefully that helps

I am really big on the new Kayne Album right now.
In general I listen to hip hop to get me pumped. I use the app 8tracks. Amazing app that lets you pick premade playlists by your mood and tags.

I take a pretty intense class at the gym 4 times a week, and even though I eat breakfast before I go, I'm always starving afterwards. Can you suggest what I should eat before and after? I'm also in a racquetball league, but we play in the afternoons, not mornings, and I don't have this problem after racquetball. Video Answer
Hey there. I was wondering if you could shed some light on the whole ectomorph,endomorph, different body type stuff. I've been trying to lose weight now for around six months now and I'm down 32 pounds. I've always been one of those larger kids and my diet was pretty shitty stuff. Now I eat fairly clean except for one day out of the week. However, I noticed I could bust my ass in the gym, really just leave everything in there and eat as clean as a whistle and lose maybe 2 pounds. But if I don't go to the gym for two or three days, and maybe eat fast food twice a week I'll gain four or five pounds. The fucks up with that? Do certain people just gain weight way too easily? Or am I just in a blind carb frenzy where I shove a ridiculous amount of junk food down my meat hole and think it's only twice a week? Thanks buddy. Video Answer
