I never really introduced myself before I started asking questions. I am male 35 5ft 8in, 260lbs. My goal is to reduce my weight to 200lbs. I excercise regularly. My problem is I love to cook & eat. I am very impressed with this web site for the info available to me on nutrician. learning more about when to eat what is what I need

Yes...you will have to modify your diet if you are going to lose 60 pounds. Weight training will help you increase your metabolism so that your body will burn more fat, but you will need to consume less so that your body does not accumulate any more.

Here's a general rule of thumb: to lose weight is 80% accomplished in the kitchen and not in the gym.

Good luck!

But if you love to cook then you just have to learn to cook lighter and healthier and then you'll be all fine.

Hmmm I'd love to have a man who knew how to cook..... lol
