dieting or for working out?

Since I feel it's more 80% diet and 20% exercise, I worked on my diet first, then worked on incorporating more exercise.I started on diet, trying to get it right. Then I quickly added walking. Plain old walking. Now I've stepped it up to an elliptical machine. I think for the best results, you really need both, especially if your life is usually sedentary.

yeah...it's not. It's pretty drastic, but, what the hell...couldn't be worse for me than the shit I used to put myself through in a week.

FML...I'm on a diet right now that I CAN'T workout on... HCG aka "dachau" diet. Give myself a shot every morning and then 500cal of rabbit food twice a day. So far in 7 days of the "very low calorie" thing and I've lost 7 lbs...but it's too soon to, pun intended, weigh in on the diet yet.

Of course, I'm looking to drop like 30 lbs to get back to my old fight weight...

Wow that sounds all kinds of healthy.

Yep, eat a well balanced diet. Ensure you get most of your carbohydrates from a rich source of vegetables, pulses and fruits. Lean proteins from fish, eggs, chicken. Supplement with whey if you are doing a lot of strength training, but be aware of the additional calories in the supplements.

If you are training hard in martial arts you do not need a weight loss diet as such, just reduce sugars and increase cardio.

You have to experiment on yourself and chose the one which works for you the best.

For me, working-out should be done along with proper diet ofcourse.
