I still eat what I want, but not as much as stay away from sugar and fried foods, except on weekends. My goal is to get my BMI to about 25-27.

Good going too. I went from close to 250 down to about 213-215, fluxuating back and forth. Went from 42 waist to 36. I have gained about 20 lbs in muscle. I lift often. Cardio is 3 times a week also. When I lift I lift heavier than most people I know. I want to be built but not built enough to compete in the Mr. Universe body building championships.

I do weights/cardio about 3xs a week and have just started doing Cardio on the alternating days.

I don't want to get big, just toned and stronger.

My reps on bench press went from doing 70lbs to now doing reps with 100lbs.

So it is working.

keep it up! Doing something is MUCH better than doing nothing. I don't want to get so big that I can not clap my hands together, but I ain't scared of having my shirts tighter and not cause of a big belly. My workouts are fairly tough I make myself throw up often. But it gets results for me. If they weren't as tough it might get burnt out and quit. M,F upper body with each exercise having sets like this, 12, 10, 8, 6, 12, 12. Start with weight lower then increase as you go. Same for the lower body. Example is hammer curls set of 12 with 45-50lbs then increase to when I am at the set of 6 I am at 65 lbs. Cardio 30 minutes on the elliptical machine at around 7 mph gets me about 3.5 miles. Depending on it I got alot of energy it is a greater distance.
