I am looking to get into better shape and I just want to know what kind of diet would help with weight loss but also would allow for muscle gains through lifting. So basically I am looking to really target endurance and abs with a little upper and lower body work. I have read and heard from a few people that having stronger abs makes your body more explosive for other lifts and in sports. So I guess I have two questions. What is the best diet for getting rid of unwanted #s and what would be a good workout for my two main areas of focus? Also what would be good supplements to take on top of the diet?

How often are you lifting? Are you lifting yet?? If no, then do you have access to lifting?

No, I haven't started lifting yet. I figured I'd get some idea of what would be some good things to do before I started. I do have access to lifting.

I would take advantage of that then. I say take advantage of the gains you make from first lifting (referred to as newb gains). Just eat a lot of protein, take shakes, and bust your ass in the gym doing w/e you're comfy with to start. You should pack on a ton of weight and mass just starting off.
