I cut around 20-25kg overall (don't know what my weight was at peak) and that was really difficult... that said, I'm planning to cut another 10kg when I'm mentally ready for it
if i had one tip for anyone wanting to lose weight, it's to not bother at all unless you're 110% committed, otherwise you just stop, start again 6 months later, stop, start again 10 months later, and then achieve nothing
after a while, you look back at your lack of success and start to feel kind of helpless about weight loss, and subsequently never bother
i think unless you're really motivated to lose weight, it's not worth bothering because it's more mental strain than most are capable of handling, and the right mindset is imperative
started to go to the gym 4months ago (after i had a 6months break) - 2-3times a week, jogging 3 times a week for at least 45min since about 2months. my overall fitness increased greatly - but no change in weight. still at about ~98kilos while being 180cm tall. starting to get pretty much pissed.
try lifting weights (compound exercises) rather than doing cardio, it will affect your metabolism differently
if you figure out your basal metabolic rate, find out how many calories you need to maintain your weight, eat 500 less a day, and you'll watch the weight drop!
I'm losing some weight too, coz I took stupid bet like 1 month ago with my friend. I lost 2kg this week, went to gym 4 times, and did other sports a lot! and before thursday I'm trying to drop 4kg by drinking a lot of water + eat only vegetables & fruits on monday, half of the monday's amount on tuesday, and none on wednesday, I also need to jog and go to sauna every evening.. it's gonna be sick 3 days :S.. hopefully I win! :D
now my morning weight is like 84kg.
at thursday we have the weight in and after that I will eat a lot for couple of days and start going to gym again. :p

figure it out and you're pretty much on the right path, absolutely no need for any 110% bullshit
