Hi Deborah, definately stick with the weight training in your routine, this is actually more effective at getting fat off that cardio. Also cut down on simple carbs and encorporate a lot more protein into your diet, ie fish, chicken. Simple carbs are fine but directly after a workout. Also eat 6 small meals a day instead of large meals and drink lots of water. The most weight loss at the start of a diet is not lose of fat but water. You may also be heavier due to muscle increase and it doesnt always have to be visably noticable. This is weight increase not fat increase, they completely different things. Avoid food with bad fats but those with healthy fats are great. Supplementation with the Omega oils and slow release vit c are also very beneficial. Sorry to appear a little vague here, I dont have much time at the moment but if you dont know about this lot already I hope that it helps. Cant help with the rage issue
