Default fat loss thing, need help

Hey all, as far as things goes, I am gonna try to lose some weight and need to see what you guys have to say.

I got a free month supply of hydroxycut hardcore (the seventy dollar one, 120 capsules).

I have been smoking ciggirettes/weed, but have quit about a week ago and never goign to smoke anything again or drink. So should I cleanse my system before I even start a workout program? Was thinking of spending 5 days or so of time to sticking to drinking about 2 gallons of water everyday for that 5 days to a week or so.

As far as my size goes, I am 5'11ish, 235 pounds at about 20ish-22ish percent body fat, I wear large t-shirts, and pants size of 38. Oh yea, I am 19.

As far as it goes, I am going to be taking hydroxycut hardcore and see how it does, I've used the cheap caffine free one and liked it, not a whole lot, but was fine.

As far as exercise goes, I have'nt done much due to my knee, but was goign to start the Tae-Bo videos, nice on my knee. And was going to work on running cardio 6 times a week at about 2 miles the first week, and move the more time up slowly and then hit up the hiit running 3 times a week, starting at 5-7 mins and move the intensity up.

As for lifting weights, no clue what to do, I was thinking of mixing it up with some plyometrics.

Usally I do fine everytime I start a workout program, I do good at least for a month and hit a wall because usally week 1 I do maybe a hour a day, next week hour a day, and move it up slowly by 30 mins each week for everyday working out, well exercising...

As for my diet now, I eat crap, but I've been sick because I think of smoking, so I was going to quit for good, and have'nt been eating too much though in calories.

I know at my size I need to eat rougly 2.6k calories or so to maintain my weight, but should I go down to 2k calories to lose weight with a program?

What do you guys think I should do? As far as it goes, I am gonna start to eat nothing for 6 days or so until my next paycheck, because thats when I am going to open up a gym membership, and buy some new protein, probally 100 percent golden whey. And a pair of new running shoes.


Would like to see some feed back of what you guys do when you cut, I've read the hinting on cutting sticky already.
