Okay so for a while i've been just the same weight but i want to actually lose weight and not just stay at the same weight not losing or gaining. I'm about 5'11 and weight about 90 kg and my bmi is over what it should be, for my height the healthy range is 59.9 - 81.0 kg . So i would like to get down to 65 kg.

I'm currently using this program to monitor my eating, i eat 1200 calories per day and it's healthy stuff like chicken salads. salad sandwiches, fruit, salmon, sometimes things like chicken noodle dinners but i add them into my calories for the day and i know that you are supposed to eat some carbs. Is this an okay diet?

As for exercise, I'm currently about to start my third week (next week) of the couch25k running program, if you're unfamiliar it's basically a program that gradually gets you to be able to run thirty mins straight and it's only three days a week. When i just signed up on here it said that if i eat 1200 calories per day and aim for 650 calories burned working out each week then i should lose 2lbs each week and have lost 4.5 kgs by January 8th is this generally correct? Because if so i will definitely follow this plan. However i would much much much appreciate any input as to what exercise i could add to the couch25k program to speed up my weight loss to lose these 25 kg's!

So any advice/tips/schedules/recipes or basically anything to do with losing these kilo's the healthy way regarding food and exercise will be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much!!!
