    You do not "take" anything for weight loss. Weight loss is addressed by your diet. Supplementing with whey will not magically make you lose weight.

    Starting with a calorie deficit is a good way to go.

    Stay away form whey entirely and stick to pure isolate, BCAA and aminos. also vear away from milk and any milk product it makes your body retain water and secrete fluid. Stay away from diet drinks and alcohol if possible. Caffeine and T5's are very good with green tea extract.
    hope this helps

    Hey! Calculate your calories with: Calorie Calculator - Daily Caloric Needs It tells you how many you should be eating around for weight loss, and eat 1g of protein for each pound of lean body mass! It has been proven compound lifts have a longer afterburn effect to take off extra calories than any other workout, so focus on them! As the key to weight loss is to lose more calories than you eat. so start off with a good diet! (Just take whey protein if you have trouble with getting the required protein Impact Whey Protein from Myprotein, pretty low in calories/fat/carbs and high in protein!)

    I'm not to sure my self, i have the knowledge but not the practice, for fat loss and muscle gain I am told Stronglift 5x5 is the thing to do... StrongLifts 5x5: Ultimate Strength & Muscle Building Program | StrongLifts.com

    Cant emphasise diet on weight loss. I feel diet is the most crucial closely followed by a suitable cardio routine.

    65kg is not that heavy, it would be good to know your height.
    Lets give this a bash anyway first lets talk activity - fat loss: your biggest burner is muscle gaining muscle will lead to loosing fat because you need more energy to sustain, grow and repair muscle. So weight lifting such as circuit training with manageable weight and body weight; or lifting one set of 10 reps followed by one set heavy of about 4 reps 3 of each per lift; or find something you enjoy, wrestling/ jitsu/ thai boxing etc are enjoyable and largely incorporate both aerobic and anaerobic activity (similar to circuits) this raises the heart rate while helping to build muscle. THE KEY IS ENJOYMENT AND DEDICATION.

    Now food you want to be eating to repair the muscle you will build and to keep your metabolism going so you can continue to burn fat. It is important you know the difference between carbs, fats and proteins.
    Carbs - energy good for storing - too much leads to visible fat e.g belly, eat morning to afternoon and once after training
    Fat (good kind) - energy you use this as energy at slow rates of work like walking or slow activity; often does not lead to the belly, eat through out the day and with proteins as helps with digestion (all good protein comes with fat, think beef, chicken, egg-white(protein) yellow(fat), fish, milk
    Fat (bad) - you know this chippy, take away, crisps, excess sweets etc
    Proteins - repair muscle - meets, dairy(low fat), eggs, fish, nuts(fats and protein)

    Supplements - whey protein is great for replacing a snack that would have been a bad fat or carb as it repairs muscle but does not make you fat.
    Use this straight after a workout or as one meal replacement a day, take with milk to get those good fats in.

    multivitamin - any good multivit helps you get what your diet might not be giving you.

    Maybe an Omega 3 for fats
