These answers are funny, but to be serious ... I've recently lost 40 pounds with diet and exercise. I'm on a 1200 calorie-a-day diet with Jenny Craig till I reach my goal. To keep it off, I plan to keep these healthy things as a part of my lifestyle - being active and eating the right things. The most encouraging thing I've found is that I don't have to go hungry if I eat the right foods - including veggies and other healthy things. Also I've changed some of my thinking because there's something wrong if I'm rewarding or pampering myself with food all the time. I don't think there's a magic diet pill or quick fix for losing weight and keeping it off - diet and exercise are the way to go.

if you want to lose weight, do it the right way!\n\nGet yourself a proper diet, go out and find a gym or sports activity you can join, and make it a part of your routine life.. just like coffee breaks and watching TV. This way youll avoid many side effects, plus the personal satsifaction of achieving a personal goal through hard work which I think you will cherish more.\n\nExcercise dont have to be tough, and diets dont have to be extreme.. just look it up and do it the right way.. find out what suits you best and start immediately, theres no better time!

There is no good way to lose weight fast.  If your trying to lose you should shoot for 1 to 2 pounds a week.  Cardiovascular exercise, a disciplined diet, and a weight training routine are the way to go.  To keep it off you just have to maintain your exercise routine and eat sensibly.  \n\nTheir is no magic diet or woder pill, you just have to change your lifestyle.  If you are really serious about this you can do it.\n\nDon't even think about an eating disorder.  It does way more harm then good.

Just use the weight watchers point system, that should take care of everything.  Lots of fruits and vegetables (I ate carrots like it was going out of style).  Pick what works for you but don't go over your allotment of points per day/week.\n\nWeight watchers is the ONLY system proven to help people lose weight.

The best way to lose weight is simply to elevate your heart rate at least 30 minutes a day. You dont even have to exercise for a long time. You dont have to job, jump, or do stairs. Just do anything that raises your heart rate pretty high for a few minutes, and your heart will continue to pump fast and burn calories. Instead of eating a few big meals a day, eat many small meals.\nMake realistic goals like 5 pounds a month and stick to a routine. Have confidence in yourself and dont obsess by looking in the mirror everyday. It will happen, just have patience :)\nI made a site to check BMI and calories burned per day. It's not all that great but I spent a lot of time adding quality links to the further links section.\nhttp://www.jimmyr.com/lose_weight.php

There is no better way to lose weight than dieting and exercise.  Any artificial method that you try is probably not good for you.  You'll lose weight with laxatives, drugs, or bulimia, but you won't be healthy.

You might be able to lose some weight, but for your overall health, you're going to have to learn to like at least some vegetables and fruit.  Try sneaking some in - drink juice, make smoothies, add them to soups, pasta etc., and make a point of trying a new one at least once a week.  Keep trying, and you'll eventually find some you like.

A great way to lose weight is to incorporate exercise into the patterns of your life. That is . . . take the stairs when you get the chance.  Walk to the store or the metro.  Make a habit of doing a "counter-pushup" every time you go to the fridge.  Quick situps as you wait for the microwave. (Believe it or not, I do this.) It's got to be part of your life for you to continue to do it.\n\nPlaying with what you eat is also helpful.  Try new recipes (lots of sites online!) and Cooking Light is a good way to find light recipes.  More vegetables, fresher ingredients. . . you may find it's fun to experiment with healthier food.\n\nHate to say it, but losing weight takes work and dedication.  You've got to consciously think about what your life looks like now, how you can change.

Try eating healthy and exercising daily.  That usually works.  There are no quick fixes to losing weight.

A good way to lose weight is to track your intake of calories.\n\nEveryone burns up a certain amount a day, the more activity that you do, the greater amount of calories your body burns up. \n\nSo, by knowing your calorie intake( I try to limit mine to 500 for breakfast, and lunch, about 250 snack, and 700 for dinner.) try to keep total calories about 1,500 and you should lose weight.\n\nOther ideas:\n\nDrink lots of water\nIf you do eat something like binge eating, so what; start again.\nKeep active\nRemember you did not gain weight overnight, and you won't lose weight overnight.\n\nYou will get there...good luck.\n\nIf you can afford it...weight watchers would be good. Because you will have support.

The only safe and effective way to lose weight is to watch what you eat and to exercise.  If you do not change your lifestyle, any weight you lose with any fad will come right back plus some and will most likely damage your body in the meantime.

Avoid fad diets (Atkins included!) like the plague!  Eat smaller portions and cut out fatty and sugary foods.  Eat plenty of fruit and veg and drink lots of water.  the key to losing well is EXERCISE....you need to do it, dont rely on diet changes alone...;
