Early this year i also decided to get myself moving. This job doesnt burn many calories as you all know. So ever since i went full time on this i gained some weight.
I lost 17.5kg in 2.5 months. And i followed
http://www.johnstonefitness.com . You basicly watch your food very carefully (calory counting which sucks at first but pretty easy after a few weeks, as you repeat meals). The first month went the fastest. Lost 10kg then.
It also includes lots and lots of exercise. Went to the gym every day and twice a week i did spinning (very intensive group cycling exercise) and the other three days i did 20-25 minutes of running + weight work out.
In july + august i quit the gym cause its just to damn hot in summer here in spain. I started again 1st of september as the summer bbq's put on a few pounds again, but they are nearly worked of by now.
Id give it a shot for sure. The guy from that page also lost lots, and its not some kinda scam. Till a few months ago he wasnt even selling anything on his site, but hosting costs got to much so now he sells some gym products.
Id give it a shot for sure
Good luck!
