I'm about 213, 5'11", male. I've been working out/exercising since mid July, and I've lost almost 40 pounds since mid June.
I've been doing about 60 minutes of cardio, and some weight training 4-5 times a week.
The reason I want to lose more quickly is because I'm having to buy new clothes very shortly (most of my pants are 4" too big already), so I don't want to have to purchase alot of clothes in between now and when I'm at my target weight, which is either 180 or 170, depending on how I look and feel. I have to start work again in December, which means I have to buy business casual clothes, since most of my pants are 42" and I'm wearing 34" now.
As for my diet, as of Saturday I'm going with a mostly protein, fruit, and veggie diet, at between 1200 and 1500 calories. I drink water, and lots of tea (without sugar). I encorporate lots of lettuce, cabbage, bananas and celery into my diet, and I'm going to start adding in strawberries and blueberries(I have monetary restrictions). I'm cutting out all fried food, processed carbs, and ready made meals until after I'm done with my intensive weight loss and back to regular exersize and workout.
