Trying to loose...

As many people do, I have started and ended trying to loose weight, work out etc. many times in the past.

My greatest success that I was most happy with was this past time. I set myself on a good diet (no fast food, drink lots of water, eat more than once per day - basic stuff) and was working out doing variations of pull ups and dips.

I was very satisfied with the building results I started to get - my upper body was getting big - fast. I worked out every other day but did very little cardio.

I'm ready to hop back on the workout truck, but first I have a question:

I want to loose the spare tire this time, so I was thinking of adding cardio (running) and doing my routine more frequently (everyday instead of every other). Besides not bulking as much, as quick - what esle should I watch out for by doing this?
 
What you might find even more effective would be to do your weigh training every other day, like you had been, followed by 20 minutes of cardio, and then doing 2 more days of 20 - 30 minutes of cardio.

This way you'll allow your muscles the oppurtunity to recover, as they should, but still be burning some calories.
