Newcomer to fit how do I git gud

>gf breaks up with me
>realize I am a 216lb fat fuck
>I don't like my body so I must fix it
>buy a gym membership to 24 hour fitness
>realize I have no idea what I am doing
>been doing nothing but cardio for 60 minutes and leg presses 3x a week
>do curls to give legs a break between leg presses and running
>realize this is possibly the most retarded use of my time

I am trying to shift into an actual routine but when I looked at the Wiki for a simple strength routine the link was broken. I went to this link: nerdfitness.com/blog/beginner-body-weight-workout-burn-fat-build-muscle/

and it seemed to have a decent routine for the gym.

but if I am such a rookie should I instead get a fitness trainer to help me get good at the machines and get a basic understanding of what I should be doing and how to set proper goals? Can I rely on 24 hour fitness to get a good instructor?

The way to lose weight is to eat less. Nothing else matters if you aren't doing that. Eat less. That's it.
