What did your path to the holy land look like? What was your timeline? Activities that provided the biggest impact?

Calories in, calories out. My current diet and routine is fairly extreme, but I'm getting ready for summer.
What I suggest, and what works for me, is
a) You'll need a cycle of acclimation and growth first. Establish a routine that works and builds specific areas of the body on a daily basis, and which do not conflict with the other areas. Get in to the habit of making 30 minutes of post-lift cardio part of this routine; don't be a lazy ass in this regard.
b) When you get some muscle built, and my build cycle usually goes for about 3 to 4 months at a clip, then you can change your diet for cutting and weight loss, and the weight will melt right off of you because that muscle is burning fat.
That's the basics.
