I used to be over 200 pounds, now I am 140 (I should be 120 though as you might know I am a short guy, the last 20 pounds requires total and extensive life changes, which I am working on). The key eating mostily fruits and vetables and replacing all beverages with bottled water. Stop going to the gym, focus on something you love (biking obviously) and buy a weight set. You save money and its a much more healthy choice. You can always do running for free if biking is not cutting it. I would suggest avoiding all processed foods and modified sugars that is what destroyed america. Avoid all dairy if possible (guys only). All that diet pill/powder/etc is garbage or plausebo. 99% of the time it only works based on other diet and excersie in your life. Honestly at this point in my life I lost my love affair with food by depriving myself so long I have actually lost my desire for the bad stuff- Because I either forgot how it tastes, or am repulsed by it or its manufacturing process. If you think my advice is garbage alright, but watch Food Inc, Biggest Looser (watching people who have to wear machines just to not die during sleep, will make you put down that slice of pizza), etc that will inspire you.
