I've been doing this since last September (almost a year, woohoo!). Good luck to all those out there, remember to keep the dieting sane. Eat well, don't starve yourself. I went from ~210 lbs (5'11") to around my current 160, which is basically my goal.
At first I only worked out and then I started changing my diet, once I limited myself to 1800-2000 cals a day, I started losing weight quickly. Still eating 1800 cals a day and maintaining well and not hungry. Feels very good -- I can finally do pull up and push ups and all that crap. DO IT, good luck!
