Many people think that by cutting down the calories they can lose weight. This could be the result of advertisements about low-calorie food products and beverages. What you don’t realise is that when you reduce your calorie intake far below the required levels, your body begins to digest the fats. It sounds good but it isn’t because to burn fat requires a lot of energy. Since you reduced your calories you do not have much energy in your body to facilitate the metabolism of fat. Your metabolic rate will be very slow resulting in fatigue, illness and a weak immune system.
Instead of reducing calorie intake, increase your lean muscle mass.
Muscles burn calories when they work, even after your exerise. Unlike fats which just lie around and bulge around your middle, muscles burn calories all-day. So you can start weight loss by increasing your muscle mass. 
The more muscles, the less fat you will have. So start your exercise regimen and do it consistently.
