Definitely fella, and I wish you the best of luck.. I think I have shed nearly 100lbs. of fat over the last couple years and added several pounds of lean muscle. If you can get a good diet in you can find fun cardio that will keep you motivated... In the long run you don't have to live and die by running it off.. Change a little at a time.. And find some activities you like... Myself, I prefer kick boxing, sparring, heavy bag etc., as well as BJJ. Just whatever floats your boat... The changes will keep coming and you'll stay motivated I'd bet. And lifting helps all around it will help the fat loss and will show off all your hard work later on. Best of luck to you.
