Dieting or lifting??

[juice122498]

I am about 30lbs overweight and I need to get in shape. So my question to you is, should I diet eating around 1800 calories and do tons of cardio to lose weight? And then eat big and begin to lift after I lose the fat or should I eat about 3000+ calories and begin lifting hard? I guess I just need to know where to begin the process. I would appreciate any advice you folks can give, thanks.

I would lift heavy 3 times a week squat/deadlift-bench-assistance. High intensity and low volume. Eat clean foods, green tea, close to maintanence calories(better yet maintanence) and let the cardio, weigths and green tea burn the fat. 45-60min off days, am on emty stomach if you can, and 20min after weigths.

But yeah dieting without weigths would not be a good idea.
