macronutrient ratios are for non-newbies anyway.. if the fat comes with something healthy, just eat it..

Backhanded compliment at best.

progress photos might help, maybe every 3-4 weeks, similar lighting/background

I'll restate the obvious and say you don't get to choose where the fat comes off... but if the scale is moving and you like what you see in the mirror, you're doing something right.

Yeah I'd be careful about the good emotions of buying workout DVD's without actually using them.. you're just falling prey to that little dopamine hit from the feeling of empowerment.. the follow-through is the hard part

My name is David and I'm looking to lose about 70 pounds. I'm trying to make it as a professional singer and looks are ever more important, these days... I'd love to be able to walk around with my shirt off in public.

Err, please do keep going to the gym! :embarassed: It sounds like the only changes you really need to make are reducing the amount of time spent doing steady-state cardio and upping your protein intake.

90 minutes of cardio how often? 90 minutes of steady-state cardio is too much.

You're correct - without significant protein intake, you won't experience hypertrophy, you won't "bulk up." It's really hard to gain muscle during dieting, but what you're doing with strength training has two big benefits over other types of activity. First, anaerobic exercise is really potent and burns -lots- of calories…

Take a multivitamin, b-complex and fish/flaxseed oil every day, but always remember that 90% of your weight loss/body transformation is going to come from your diet, that's why they're called supplements. "great abs are built in the kitchen" :smile:
