Hi guys,
I'm new here. I'm 18 and last time i checked I weighed 220, I think. I'm about 5'9, and I really wanna get down to like 170 or even 180 by January when I start school. Do you guys have any tips or anything?

Welcome to FreeTrainers, Marq07. There's a wealth of knowledge here on this site. Anything you need to know is right here.

To lose weight your first priority is realizing that it's going to involve a lifestyle change. Your dietary, sleeping, and training habits must all be altered and geared for success. Understand that you're in contol: you are the one that needs to take ownership in your failures as well as your successes. Disipline is key.

Check out the "Specific Diets & Nutrition Discussion" section for your dietary needs. If you can get your diet under control, the rest will be easy (or at least easier).

Best of luck to you. We're here if you need anything...
