It’s good that you started working out. The best thing you could do to lose weight is running because that burns off the most calories, and drinking mostly water to keep your body running smoothly.
I would recommend working out 5 times a week, although you should gradually build up to that, don’t start doing it at once. Keep in mind that it’s not always the length of your workout, but the quality that matters. For instance, if you go faster on the bike or treadmill, and really push yourself, you could burn more calories in half the time. I would also suggest running outside instead of the treadmill as it makes running more interesting.
It seems that you eat a little too much fast food. Ideally, you should allow yourself one “spoiler” meal a week-go wild on the food you love, but only once a week. Besides that, I would suggest cooking at home, and the salads are good for you.
Most of all, don’t get discouraged, it takes a lot of hard work and determination, and you will see results slowly but surely if you keep working at it.
Good luck!!
