Does crossfit will help me to slim down?

I'm 215lbs and i've just started crossfit training, my major concern it's that the fat will harden with the wods and make it more difficult to slim down.

    crossfit will definitely help you to slim down. the workouts are so intense the will burn fat, and build muscle (which will burn even more fat). Take monthly pictures of yourself, as well as weigh and measure yourself. the most obvious changes you'll see is your measurements going down, then the pictures of you slimming down. because you will be building muscle so rapidly you will put on weight for the first few weeks. this is natural, don't let it freak you out, take comfort in the measurements and pictures that its muscle and not fat keeping your weight high.

    give crossfit 3 months to see some results, don't expect miracles, but i guarantee you will see change and like it.
