If I woke up 30 pounds overweight and wanted to lose it all by the end of this year, this is EXACTLY what I'd do:

1. Eliminate alcohol. When you drink your body prioritizes burning it first. Trying to burn fat while drinking alcohol is playing the game on hard mode. 2. Multiply your bodyweight by 12. That will be your daily calorie intake.

3. Multiply your bodyweight by .8. That will be the daily grams of protein you need to eat to maintain/build muscle while burning fat.

4. To keep it easy focus on hitting your calories and protein.

If you want to get in shape before summer, you don't have much time.

Here's what I'd start doing today if I wanted to lose 8-15 lbs of fat before the summer: 1. Eliminate alcohol. These are negative calories because your body burns the alcohol before it burns fat, while increasing appetite and hunger. Removing it will automatically be a net positive.

2. Lift weights using progressive overload three days a week, bare minimum.
