I'm currently about 13 and a half stone, not great for my size I'm definitely over weight. I am in the process of building a gym outside in the garden, I plan on losing weight and building some muscle.
I have to say though it's FUCKING HARD, I've tried and failed lots of times in the last two years, my problem is fast food and lunchs 100%. When I was younger I would of laughed in the face of anyone telling me I'd get fat, I had a six pack without even working out.
Now I'm older, fat and going bald. On a positive I'm happily married with a kid, but a word of warning to anyone young is never assume weight will never happen.
It does.

Intermittent fasting if you go to the gym. I'm currently trying it as I'm trying to lean out a bit more, I'm probably 15% BF not and I'm aiming for 10%. I don't do much cardio - maybe 30 minutes per week on a bike. If you weightlift and IF you will be all good, not to mention it will make your sex life much better. I can go 3-4 times a day with no problem whereas I could barely stretch 2 a few months ago.
Lower BF = Higher test, as bodyfat increases estrogen production

I eat mountains of meat(protein) and have lost 45lbs. Can't do cardio due to too many past issues(knees shot, ribs shot).
I can safely say, what works for 1 doesn't for anther, I have had others try my lifestyle, and felt sickly and gained weight. My health hasn't been this good since before I collapsed my rib cage(L side only), and my last physical showed 0 issues(pulse at a nice 58, BP 118/52) and I drink about 2 pots of coffee a day.
This same diet has my father outpacing guys 1/2 his age, and both of us often get mistaken for a decade younger.
So, I will continue to have a double cheeseburger with a side of chili cheese dogs for my dinner, and reap the personal benefits.

Aren't you like 22? If I was 22 and people mistook be for being 12, I'd be pissed enough to hit the gym.

Ha! Nearly 40, already retired once and working hard towards 2nd retirement, which after that will be nothing but 2nd breakfasts.

If you eat lots of protien as your main energy source, it takes more energy to digest compared to carbs (which are the most efficient energy source). To lose weight, it's calories in vs calories out. If you want to lose weight, eat less and exercise more.
If people are gaining weight by eating protien, eat less of it - they need a lower amount of calories to sustain their daily activities. BTW low BF% doesn't mean you're healthy, it just means you're not fat.
