    Ideally

    I would suggest a combination of cardiovascular (cycling, running, rowing, swimming etc), coupled with some low weight training. The body burns calories whislt at rest with weight training. Cardio burns fat and builds stamina.

    Diet wise make simple changes to your lifestyle, dont "ban" foods or you will just crave them more, try skimmed milk instead of semi, try spirits with a slimline mixer instead of lager and eat slowly and deliberately you will feel fuller sooner.

    Cv's a waste of time and has minimal effect on standing metabolic rate.

    Nothing burns calories like heavy resistance training and the effect on metabolic rate can last up top two days. Also resistance training accelerates your BMR by as much as 15%. Adding half a kilo of muscle to your body will burn the equivalent of two and a half kilos of body fat annually.

    Doesn't always work like that

    Started going to the gym a year ago, gone from 16st to 14st, eating healthy rather than any particular fad diet....howeve some times the weight loss stagnates and yet I can then have a bit of a binge and it starts coming off - it's probably because I'm not actually eating enough at times even though I'm full.
