Best thing you can do for yourself is diet bro.. Cut out the simple carb stuff for the most part.. Avoid processed breads too... Eat your stuff on whole wheat... Try to avoid anything that is deep fried.. Saturated fats combined with simple carbs are waaaayyy bad for dieting... Avoid fat free ice cream too.. if you have to eat ice cream eat real and regular ice cream.. I know it's got more fat but on a glycemic level it's way better to have the fat to help absorb that sugar than to just have an insulin spike from the simple carbs with no fat to help absorb it (this is weird I know as they market fat free ice cream to dieters..but in reality it's actually worse for people trying to lose weight) Although eating ice cream at all is bad for dieting...
Your diet should be mostly proteins.. eat lots of leafy veggies.. eat complex carbs like whole grain breads and whole grain rice... I know it's tough but avoiding processed foods and soda will make a very noticable difference in you within just one month! Try to add in some cardio at the end of your workout sessions.. or go for a 30 minute walk on days you don't lift... You'd be suprised how much this would help you..!

Anyhow I do work out 3 times a week, at least. I don't use anything not even shakes, tried creatine once, didn't feel like it made a diffrence so I stopped. Have been looking on here at diets and what not, and have noticed that mine is far from what is recomended on here, like i said I'm new to this whole thing really. Thanks for your time.
