Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below I am having some problems shedding fat. I am in a job that I can't control my diet too much. None of the flax seed or anything like that. I pretty much can stick to a meat thats not always THAT healthy and some vegetables. portions are kept small and I have a fruit for snack in between meals and before bed.I am a big guy at 6 foot and 257 pounds. somewhere in the ballpark of 25% bf. I have been eating as good as I possibly can with AT LEAST an hour of cardio a day. On average I run about 3 miles in the morning 3 times a week with the other two days doing muscle failure type things( push-ups/Sit-ups ) and around 5 I do about 45 min. of cardio on a bike or eliptical(do to shin splints). I have been doing the best I can with what I got and am only losing about two or three pounds a week. Im looking for something that can cut the fat a little faster. Im looking to get down to about 190 ASAP. Any feedback will help

stick a toothbrush down your throat and get manorexic 
just kidding, but seriously if you do it use a Reach toothbrush its amazing
Ok for real though I didn't start to see fat loss with my cardio until i was consistant for about 4 weeks, I mean consistant, 4 times a week at least. I would do two sessions of HIIT for 20 min and two long sessions that ranged between 30-45 min. Oh yeah and i do cardio either 1st thing in the morn or directly after a workout. Unfortunately my diet is for crap, its semi clean, i basically eat anything but fast food, but I eat alot and maintain a stable 215lbs with a 34 inch waist at 5'10". i'm satisfied cause i was a 32 at 185 lbs and i'm only a 34 at current. Just remember your results are only as good as your inputs.

Why can't you control your diet?
With all that cardio, given whatever your diet is, 2-3 pounds a week is actually very good! Anything more than that isn't healthy. Though expect weight loss to slow down after a while... Try to clean up your diet even further, continue with your cardio as-is, and try some thermogenic supplements (for example, Lipoflame, Dermatherm, Thermorexin, etc etc).

Instead of cardio, lift weights.
Eat less.
Problem solved.

I heard Carson Daly lost all that weight on a semen only diet, you could try that.

Totally agree, Nelson. Every time I have tried the cardio route I have failed to lose any noticeable weight, with the exception being when I ran 3 miles a day, 5 days a week for 3 months. No thanks to that shit.
Lifting hard and eating right is far, FAR more effective for me than cardio. Besides, my workouts *are* cardio- if I look at a heart rate monitor at any time during my workout it is in the fat-burning range, sometimes a bit higher. An hour or so of that 4-5 times a week will nuke the fat off you.
Alright so the general response is just do some weight lifting instead of cardio? I have to run at least 3 miles 3 times a week in the mornings. The afternoon workout is generally up to me. I eat about the least I can without starving myself and I have always heard that having a fruit for a snack in between meals keeps up your meto. If I start the weight lifting Im guessing I should just try to maintain a good heart rate taking the necessary times between reps/sets?
