I receive some good amounts of vitamins and other stuff. My goal is to loose 20pounds in about a month. For some of you might sound a lot, but for me it sounds possible. My main problem is that i dont know if i should stay away from weights or not this period.

If you are taking in only 500 calories a day (I am assuming you are on a half assed starvation type diet) weights are gonna be just about worthless. Unless your lifting like a woman, ie not for bulk, not heavy. You cant bulk up and lose weight at the same time very easy. It can be done but serious muscle requires ALOT of protein and that equals calories. So basically it is one or the other.
If you can get yourself to get up in the whenever you wake up and do an hour on an eliptical machine BEFORE you eat anything, 1 hour half assed on an eliptical is 400 calories burned easy. And on an empty stomach, its eating nothing but fat and muscle.
The simple fact of the matter is just burn more calories than you take in to lose weight. If you are starving yourself, the first 7 pounds or so you see gone are gonna be water loss.
There really is no need to starve yourself. Cut your sugar and carb intake, eat alot of chicken and tuna, exercise, and you will see a difference. May not go as fast as you would like, but nothing is more hellish than a starvation diet. Would you rather take 2 months to lose the weight and feel good. Or sit around all day weak and dying for something to eat?
20 lbs in a month? easy. If you went apeshit, you could do it in two weeks easy. Go get some Androstene (not sure where you are it is illegal in come countries but not in the USA) and jack your metabolism thru the roof.
