Sorry, I just have days where.....

Read some of the sticky posts in all of the forums - nearly every question you could think of has been discussed ad infinitum.

Once you have been reading and educating yourself for a while, come back and ask specific, well formulated questions.

Good luck.

taii - do some reading in every forum - sign up at the top of the screen under 'exercise program' for your workout - you answer questions about goals and equipment availability and it will generate a printable plan for you.

as far as eating - that is discussed often here - do some reading of sticky posts and ask specific questions.

There is also a search engine at the bottom of the screen - fit buddy - you can enter a term and it will pull up relevant posts.

The basics :

eat 5-6 small meals a day - food every 3 hours will stoke your metabolism.

if man made it, you shouldn't eat it. eat as close to natural state as you can.

drink plenty of water and no-calorie beverages, green tea being especially beneficial.

get enough sleep.

exercise.

repeat all until it has become a lifestyle, not a diet.
