Hi Nick, welcome to FreeTrainers.

Losing 20-30lbs is very reasonable goal to reach. Aim for about 1 to 2lbs per week. This will take dedication, so prepare yourself mentally for the task ahead.

A good start would be to start with our home workout or bands / ball home workouts. They are currently full body type workouts with minimal rest that help with fat loss and toning. Exercise balls, bands or a set of dumbbells are very cheap, usually $5-$10 at your local stores.

Beside the increase in fitness to burn extra calories, you'll need to watch what you eat. It's difficult to offer advice as you first need to share an honest look at what you eat now.

Simple advice is to eat 5-6 small meals a day  to increase your metabolism. Leave out any processed or fast foods as well as pop or energy type drinks. Increase protein, healthy fats and lower carbohydrates.
