Well you have a minimim of 25lbs to lose, probably more since you'll have to undershoot your target weight and build muscle to replace fat.

The order of doing this is not that important. You'll...

Glad to hear you are feeling better but frustrating they don't know what it was...

I deleted your other duplicate post. Stop doing that please.

We don't use fixed plans. It's better for longer term results to work it out for yourself:
- read in the sticky threads what calorie level and macros you need
- put something you could live with...

No need to duplicate threads across forums.

If your goal is purely fat loss, you need not do any cardio - just control your calorie intake.

Of course, you can increase your deficit by adding cardio although I think it is an unproductive use...

If you are calculating calorie intake and monitoring your weight, you get that information by default. You just need to measure recent weight change and recent average calorie intake.

What it says...

No, there are upsides and downsides of each.

You need to know enough and have enough training experience to cover off more than just split, balance, exercise selection, volume etc. You also need...

It's a combination of needing to lose a little more fat (adding muscle will help too) - and having some loose skin.

I'm not the expert on loose skin perhaps others can chime in. I can tell you...

Resistance training builds muscle. Isolations affect less total muscle fibres than compounds - but might reach some fibres that compounds don't reach, that's the point of isolations...

Weigh yourself every morning and you can see these day to day...

I don't think there is some pre-ordained order. Just tackle what most bothers you first - e.g. excess bodyfat or lack of muscle. BTW you don't need a specific strength phase if your goals are purely...

Read the creatine sticky thread in the Supplements forum.

For most people there is no real downside to creatine and it's usually a no brainer.

It's normal to see a big drop in the first week - you have lost a lot of water. But don't be suprised if the next week it's a lot less.

We usually recommend that you run a calorie for at least 2...

They don't stop you training normally. Although sometimes I believe they can be responsible for spasm/cramp so you might have to be careful while your are waiting for the remedial exercise to take...

My view is that they are caused by using a muscle through a shortened range of motion or with a jerky action (e.g. power cleans).

I have had success dealing with stiffness/knotting issues by using...

Some people call it adaptation. Be careful though, it doesn't happen by much. Your maintenance intake might adjust by 200 calories a day when you've been dieting for a while. It should not continue...
