    It has taken me nearly 3 months of gym and diet to shift 8lb, because I have been learning to run and lifting weights. I've been building muscle and losing inches all over... I stand taller, feel stronger, and if I can haul *kitten* on a treadmill for 20 minutes at 210lb, SOMETHING is going right.
    I lost the bulk of my weight by diet alone, I had my cals set to 1500 which I stuck to. I walked as much as I could and lost 20lb ish in around 4 months.

    Don't go every day, you WILL burn out. Try three times a week and maybe a home DVD if you're desperate to exercise another day. Your body needs time to rest and repair itself.

    Slow and steady wins the race.

    Like everyone else has said, its not only your exercise, its your nutrition!

    You will spend 10% of your time in the gym, the other 90% of your time is what youre eating.
