Hello newbie here!

[Dirk Diggler]

Hi I am looking to tone my body and get in better shape. I used to weigh 285, but now I am down to 210. I just signed up to a gym because I am looking to start weight lifting, but I still want to drop more pounds. My goal is 160-170. I am just curious on what I can do to lose more weight and how I should schedule workouts. Also nutrition is another key factor I'm looking to revamp my diet with more beneficial foods. Any advice/tips are appreciated thanks.

The topic was original about training principles regarding fat loss, but as the discussion goes on (don't worry, it's not too long of a read) I also ended up linking to a simple program you'll be able to do in most gyms (and if you can't, just ask me about modifications/substitutions you can make) and discussing the key factors about nutrition you'll have to consider.

Yeah thanks Ryan I read it, do you have a good link about nutrition and the gym exercises. I really appreciate it!
