Exercise w. weights: Eat protein( meat, fish, chicken, eggs and vegetables. Eat every 4 hours. Do not skip meals. Drink lots of water. No soda or juice. No processed foods made from white flour. Sleep 8 hours ever night.
Interval training helps with maximum fat loss. Resistance training with weights helps to build muscle.
