I'm kinda in a similar situation. I don't know to call myself fat but definitely got the gut sticking out. I don't even know who to listen to - some say if you eat a certain amount of calories (based on your Basic Metabolism Rate given your age and weight and height), then you're metabolism will be at such a level that you'll drop the weight naturally. But others say to simply burn more calories than you take in (3500 calories makes up one pound, and it's not considered healthy to lose more than two pounds a week.)

I'd like to lose as much as I have to within no more than a few months. My scale might be broken but it currently says I'm around 230 lbs.

You're overcomplicating things. As long as you eat healthy food and exercise regularly, weight will fall off. I recommend DDP Yoga to you as well though. The reason I constantly recommend it is because:

1) I have tried it myself for a long period (I try everything, it's part of my job) and was incredibly impressed with the results. It doesn't just help you lose weight, but it strengthens your core and many other muscles in your body. Furthermore, it takes like 10 seconds to get your heart rate up to like 140 which is all you need.

2) You do not need to leave your house or have a long period of time to do it. All you need is a towel and a PC/Television and you're set to go.

3) You recognise the differences almost immediately. One of the biggest reasons people never stick to their diets or work out routines is because they can't visibly notice any differences. You don't have that issue if you use DDP Yoga.

If you don't want to go down that route, then jog/swim regularly and eat healthy foods (lots of vegetables, proteins). Lifting weights and working out that way can also help speed up your metabolism.

Do a bunch of burpees daily, prison style. Such an easy way to burn fat, works your entire body too.
