You may be finding it hard to shift weight because of a low motabolism... Some people have fast some have slow but those who have slow need to work extra hard to burn it.... Monitor the Calorie intake on the foods you eat and id say eat no more than 1,500 cals a day when the recommended for men is 2000 cals... When you are at the gym make sure that you have the tread mil on the calorie counter so you know how hard it is just to burn off a mars bar... I think when i joined a gym i had to run on speed 11.4 for 15 minutes which is sprininting non stop justy to burn off a mars bar.... On a monday lets say take a weight record and know what your ideal goal to get to....
Kindest regards

would it have been easier to just not have eaten that mars bar than bond with the tread mill
didnt seem like the op was on any type of diet, unless donuts and fast food are allowed.

read my first post too and it really just dosnt seem this person is on a diet.
not an issue of being supportive. eating donuts and fast food and declaring its difficult to loose weight is difficult for me to fathom.

At my heaviest, I was around 280lbs (I'm 5'6" tall) so I was obese. I am currently around 177lbs and am weight training to gain muscle.
Loosing weight starts in your head . . . you have to want to loose this weight at whatever cost. It's not easy, but can be done.
It's about 80% diet and 20% exercise . . . . the more you exercise, the more you're allowed to eat. I lost my weight using a website called LiveStrong.com The site figures out about how many calories you need to consume a day, helps you track calories in and calories burned to help you loose weight (up to 2lbs a week).
I'll figure out how to post before / after pics.

lol if you want a blunt and shallow answer i'll give it to ya. the line is right on top of your groin and under your stomach. if that area folds while your standing up straight- your fat. if it doesnt and your stomach is just bulging, your chubby. there- a shallow and quite accurate answer.
