Thank you.

I was afraid of that: that I might be wasting time adding too much muscle now when I've still got 25 stubborn pounds to lose. Honestly, it's all very inexact, though, isn't it? I mean, I trained SS cardio for a year (training for a half marathon) and lost nothing, except muscle. (How can a person run 20 - 25 mpw and still be fat? Baffling.)

The answer must lie somewhere in the middle, much like NRL4W's program utilizing only 2 days ever-increasing resistance training per week, with 4 days cardio and a conscious nutrition program...?

Your experience and willingness to share is much appreciated.
