Looking to lose some weight from DDR.

[cdfster]

I'm 16, 5'9 and 160 pounds.

I want to lose some weight from DDR (stepmania). I currently have a redoctane ignition mat and can play light/standard songs.

I just want to get a jist of how long it might take for me to lose 20 pounds or so? If anyone feels like recommending good things to eat and good things overall to do to lose weight, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks! ;D

i'm not sure on how long it would take to see result, it depends on your metabloism/weight/intensity of playing.


but i can tell you for sure that you will lose inches, and fat, its a great workout.

For a male at 5'9" and 160, you don't sound like you need to lose weight to me. Maybe you should just work on building muscle so you'll have a harder body.

Healthy weights for heights, based on something or other (but fairly consistent with other charts i've seen). It looks like you shouldn't need to lose more than 10 to be pretty darn skinny according to this.

How much you need to be short calorie-wise per day to get to your goal... you can set the calculator by goal, by calories, by time... and it fills in the missing bits.
