HI Firey, welcome aboard!

how long have you been training for? and what is your current diet and training routine like. many times just some adjustments in those areas produce as effective results. there is no miracle drug or diet.

as for the other questions, Im sure that one of our knowledgable woman can help

Welcome to the board hun. I would like to know a little more information on your training and/or diet as well. Have you used any other supplements before?(fat burners etc)
How much do you weigh and do you know your current level of bodyfat?
Once again, welcome.

Well, let me see. I am currently 192 pounds and I am 5'7". I am about 35% or so BF. I need to have an accurate measurement done. I have a long way to go, but I am willing to put forth the effort so I know it will get done. I am starting my workouts again on Monday as well as my diet. I plan on following the Body for Life plan more than likely for the first 12 weeks and then tweaking it as I go. It seems like a pretty solid plan. Basically, it's low carb, high protein, moderate fat. I plan to keep my food as simple as possible. I will keep my protein around 40% of my calories and eat 5-6 times a day. My workouts will be a upper and lower body split routine with cardio on the days in between. I also want to try to do some yoga or stretching in the evenings when possible. I have tried lots of supplements in the past. I have taken Xenadrine, BetaGen, CLA, ala, Green Tea. I have also taken Phentermine, a prescription weight loss pill. It works okay for a little while, but then it loses it's effectiveness. I know I didn't gain all this weight in one day, so I can't expect it to come off overnight. I just want to maximize my results as much as possible. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, guys!

welcome to the board and congrats on the determination - that will definitely get you where you want to be!

you're probably going to hate me for saying this, but it's really in your best interests to go about the weight loss with a good training routine and a great diet instead of with the t3 and Clen because t3 is not really stuff you want to be playing with (it can really screw up your thyroid and make you gain weight, instead of losing it). Clen is really only effective for those who are nearer to their goal bf%

can you lay out your training routine and diet more specifically for us? we may be able to tweak it so that it is most effective for you.

I'm going to do my workouts first thing in the am on an empty stomach.

Like I said before, I plan on eating 5-6 meals per day and having low carbs, high protein, and moderate fat. I am going to cut all refined carbs and sugar.

Should I take some sort of fat burner?
