Weight Loss and Resistance Training!
Hello there! I'm new here too.Smile

Try the following things. It'll certainly help:

1. Creating a deficit in your daily calorie intake.

2. Drink lots of water. ( Your weight in pounds/2) = Ounces of water you must drink everyday.

3. Eat REAL food like fruits,vegetables,nuts,pulses,other grains,brown rice. Avoid junk, and processed food.

4. Cardio is of 3 kinds: a) High intensity, short duration. b)Medium intensity,medium duration. c) Low intensity, long duration.
The first type, i.e., HIIT is the most effective. Although you shouldn't do it more than thrice a week.
(You can do HIIT anywhere ,anytime, and guess what? You don't require any equipment. HIIT uses body weight training.)

5. Combine Strength training(can be free hand as well) along with HIIT(cardio) to get the best results.

6. Work out at least 4 days/week.

7. Don't lose hope. Keep trying! You WILL get there, as long as you don't give up.

Also, keep a record of what you're eating everyday, and how much calories you're burning.

Sleep
Hello, I'm new here too.

Yes, in order to calculate the net calories burnt, you must subtract all the calories burnt during the day (including calories burnt while sleeping or resting and exercise) from the total calories consumed during the day.

Note-

Positive net calories indicates you've consumed more calories than your body needs. So if your daily net calories is positive, you will gain weight over time.

Similarly, negative net calories indicates you've a deficit in your daily calorie requirement, and in order for your body to function, it will use up all the fat stored in your body.

So, aim for a negative net calorie, and you should be losing weight in no time if you're really working hard for it.

Tip:

Create a deficit in your daily calorie intake. (Eg, if its by 500 everyday,either by eating less and/or by exercising, then ideally, you should be losing 1 pound/week)

With that being said, always keep in mind, every body is different, and burns fat at different rates, from different places, and you shouldn't push yourself too hard too soon. Go slow, and steady, and yeah, you should be fine. Smile

Just, remember that people slip up from time to time, and that's all right, AS LONG AS you don't stop working towards achieving your goals.

Good luck!
