I am new to the forum. I am 23 years old. I am 5'2 currently 155lbs right now. I have always wanted to lose weight but have dragged it on my entire life. How much weight can I loose per month by exercise and diet? Which cardio machines are the most effective to use at the gym and for how long should I use them each time? How much calories should I be intaking per day to see results? My long term goal is 130lbs. I just started working out recently.
