Do not eat carbohydrate (rice, potato, bread, cookies, etc) at all !!!\nEat only vegetables and fruits. I highly recommend you to eat vegetables, because fruit contains some sugar which is not help you a lot to lose weight.\nThese are some low-calorie veggies : \nlettuce\ncarrots\ncelery\ncucumber\nasparagus\nbeets\ncabages\n\nand fruits : \nstrawberries and all the berries\ntomatoes\nkiwi fruit\ncherry\n\nThese are some meal plans for you :\nBREAKFAST : 4 strawberries, 1 kiwi fruit, 1 cup of tea/coffee without sugar, 1/2 cup of  natural non-fat yogurt\nLUNCH : you can only have salad and some grilled chicken breast or steamed fish. DO NOT eat salad with mayonaise, mustard, oil olive, etc. Just salad without any dressing.\nDINNER : Fruit salad with another 1/2 of yogurt dressing, or you can have some vegetables soup (Do not put any cream or milk on your soup, never!!)\nSNACK : Carrots and celery. Eat as much as you want, but only carrots and celeries.\nDRINKS : Water, green tea, and coffee without sugar. No soda, milkshake, cow milk, etc).\nDo not eat sweets (candies, chocolates, cookies). Do not have dessert. From now on all that you have are salad with steamed or grilled chicken breast and fish. \n\nTry to eat those things for 1 week. If it doesn't work, go extreme (I really don't suggest this actually, just in case that you'll have your mariage in 1 week). Eat 2 cups of natural and non-fat yogurt for a day and drink water. Eat 1/2 cup of yogurt for breakfast, 1 cup for lunch, and another 1/2 for dinner. Don't do this if it's not really necessary.

The easiest most healthiest way to lose weight fast is to go on a fruit and vegetable, salad, and soup diet. Most of these foods are considered negative calories, calories that get burned up in your digestive system. \n\nAlong with this, excercise!

Excercise and eat the recommended serving of fruits and vegetables every day.  Cut back on junk foods and unhealthy items.  It takes longer than fad dieting, but the results are more likely to stay.  Be careful not to look for a quick fix...they usually end up not working out.

The only "diet" (I hate that word) plan that has worked for me is lots of walking. I try to walk most places and eat mostly fresh foods. Lots of fruits and vegies. Try not to eat fast-food. Even the fast-food salads contain lots of fat and calories. If you get hungry, drink some water and eat something healthy.(fruits and vegies) When I eat out, I try to pick something that is halfway healthy and will taste good. The worst thing about being on a diet is having to act like you're on a diet. That is definately not motivating. Oh, and drinking lots of water helps keep you hydrated and it also flushes all sorts of things out of your body. Most people are not sucussful with any diet unless they're getting lots of water. At least 8 eight fl. oz a day. That's about 2 liters. Good luck!

Fad diets like that are no good. they are not good for your health and people who go on these fad diets, lose the weight that they want, start eating normally again end up gaining a lot of weight back because the body thought that it was starving. A lot of fad diets cause our bodies to lack what it needs and our bodies start to accomodate for whatever it is that it is missing. For example, our bodies need carbs, low carb diets are no good. Your body will see that it is lacking carbs and your muscles start to turn into sugar to accomodate for the missing carbs. \n\nI know people that were on the low carb diets and they were always tired out and run down and they just did not look healthy. \n\nWhen I was struggling with my weight after recovering from thyroid disease a doctor tried putting me on the atkins diet I ended up passing out from low blood sugar, then he said to try the southbeach diet, I got even sicker and I missed 2 months of work. Had to go through the misery of glucose tests and so on and so forth. Besides that I was not losing any weight. \n\nWell.. my parents met up with this great doctor, he said" I know what you need" \n\nHe told me to limit my food intake. Eat healthy meals. Smaller meals , don't eat everytime I feel hungry and if i snack snack on half of a peanut butter sandwich or half of a protein bar or something like that. Desserts don't hurt as long as it is a little bit and on occasion Boom!! It's been almost two years. My weight is almost normal. You know, it took a lot of discipline and control. I eat normally, I excercise, I drink plenty of water. I am just fine. \n\nYou don't need any fancy diet to lose weight. \n\nWeight watchers is a great program that can help you monitor your eating. They will put you on a point system and they weigh you every week. I hear it's a great program!!  AND you don't have to buy fancy crappy food, it is normal everyday food. \n\nGood luck to you

The problem with fad dieting is that they are not useful in long-term weight loss.  You have to figure when you start a diet if it's something you'll be able to maintain for the rest of your life.  The best way is to work yourself into a well-rounded exercise program, and paying more attention to what you eat.  I would honestly check out mypyramid.com and utilize the resources there before wasting my money on books and pills.

In the long run a fast diet is never the answer, if you lose weight fast it only means you will gain it again fast too.\n\nThe best long-term diet I can recommend is no diet. Just take the following guidelines:\n\n1. Never skip meals, if you skip meals, especially breakfast, you will have a greater tendency to snack later in the day.\n2. No candy, cake or other sweets.\n3. No potato chips, junk food, pizza etc\n4. Exercise regularly, if you build up your muscles it will mean that you will burn more calories ( even when resting).\n5. eat regularly, at regular times, if you have the freedom to do so I recommend eating a small portion 5-6 times a day. If you eat potatoes, don't take gravy, eat your salad without the dressing, cut down on salt and sugar intake.\n6. If you get the munchies, chew on a carrot or a celery stick, they contain no calories and you will actually burn more calories while digesting them.\n7. Read ingredients, if you are planning to buy anything while grocery shopping, always read what is in it.\n\nGood luck!

Liposuction or gastric bypass work as a temp. fix, but no diet is extremely fast. They're all to do with discipline. Go to a nutritionist to see what diet would work best for your body type.

Yeah the fastest and easiest and funniest is swimming... I know I know... maybe you don't have the money to do it... But if you live where a YMCA is you can go there anc get finacing I only had to pay 20 dollars a month for myself and my three other family members a month not bad and I lost the weight and it wasn't really work as I love to swim... another way is to walk in your free time... every other half hour or hour.. for 30 mins walk anywhere hills flat land what ever just do it.. sometimes your worse problems will be solved through walking plenty of timet o think.. and the wieght comes off. Drink 8 glass of water each day and then on top of that drink a glass and a half at least before every meal.. it fills you up faster... make your meal portions no bigger then your fist as your stomache is only supose to be as big as your fist.... so limit your protion sizes.. DOn't eat out to much once a week is fine to treat yourself stay away from the chocolate once a week is fine give yourself a treat for your work.. Don't deprive yourself when your hungry find a heathly snack canned fruit is good.. if you want to lose the weight fast and keep it off then do as I say and you will lose.. I weighed 199 lbs at 14 years old I lost 100 lbs in two months walking every other half hour drinking plenty of water before and after meals and 8 glass of water a day beyond that... I looked felt and sounded great. good luck to you .. I am now also on this diet trick again myself.. and fighting to lose my baby fat from my two girls I had I am 31 now.. and at 138 lbs... I have never gotten back up to the 199 lbs and don't plan to either but I would defently like to lose 30 lbs.... to get to my actual love weight lol. 110 is my goal.. wish you lived near by I would walk with you and we could keep each other company and going .. I ll pray for you and I hope you do the same for me.

Eat breakfast. Eat lunch. (Must eat)\nAfter 7, never eat. If you have to drink water.\nHave a regular life style.\nReduce whatever you're eating to 1/2 or 3/4.\nTry to avoid fatty foods. And NO SNACKS!\nThis alone (w/o exercise) should make you lose weight really really fast.\nBut don't keep this up forever. Excercise is the only way on loosing weight and staying healthy.

There's no such thing as quick and fast. Anything over the counter that can promise you quick and fast isn't safe so I wouldn't take them. You just have to watch your caloric intake versus your activity level, it'll come off, but it will take time. Losing anymore than 4 pounds a week isn't healthy either so don't do some crash diet or pill that could potentially hurt you.

I have been on Medifast; Optifast and other like it.  Don't waste your time.  I have been on Atkins, weight watchers, South Beach and taken diet pills.  He is what finally worked for me.  I cut out deserts, bread and pasta.  I eat a lot of salads, chicken, fish and fresh fruits and vegetables.  But, I drink a whole load of water.  To make it tastier, I squeeze fruit into the water.  I found this helps me loose weight and still feel full.  I also do some exercise.  In my opinion, these diets are all full of crap.

I don’t know about food, but I know an AWESOME way to get ride of fat…and quickly. And guess what? It is a BLAST to do! \n\nTake any type of a dance class. Dance everyday to something quick, and watch the pounds fly away!

Crash diets dont work! Why not? Because they leave us hungry and miserable.\nResult? We stop dieting and start bingeing.\n\nbut if you really want one to try here ya go.\n\n this is far from the ideal diet and it should be noted that they aren't balanced and the best way to lose any weight is with a careful well balanced diet.\nDon't do a crash diet for more than 3 to 7 days. Most of these diets are not meant to be kept for extended periods of time. They aren't balanced and not meant to be your permanent way of eating. \nThe week that your going to keep the fad diet, don't overexert yourself. While feeling fine during the diet, you shouldn't try to exert yourself too much, it would make it difficult to keep it and may be too stressful on your system. \n  \n\nDon't go out to dinner with friends and other social activities. Nothing is worst then eating something tiny when your friends are eating their heads off. So, while it can be done, it's easier to just avoid those types of situations. \n  \n\nIf you get very hungry drink a cold glass of water, it will help to take away the hunger pangs. You could always try sucking on ice to calm hunger pains. \n  \n\nOne last thing, once the crash diet ends don't think it's party time and eat out the house...once the diet is over you want to celebrate, just don't celebrate it with food!! Start your well balanced diet once you are done with the fad diet. \nYou must drink eight 8oz. glasses of water daily (64 oz. total per day). \nAt any meal you may eat until you are full. \nYou must eat the minimum listed at each meal. (yep, this diet list the minimum you should eat). \nYou cannot eliminate anything from the diet. Especially the bacon at breakfast and the salads. You must eat the bacon and salads. These combinations of food burn the fat, omitting one part of the combination will cause the whole thing not to work.The grapefruit or fruit juice is important because it acts as a catalyst that starts the burning process. Don't add or reduce the amount of grapefruit or juice. \nCut down on coffee, it affects the insulin balance that hinders the burning process. Try to limit to 1 cup at meal time. \nDon't eat between meals. If you eat the suggested foods you will not get hungry. \nYou can fry food in butter and use butter generously on vegetables. \nDo not eat desserts, breads, and white vegetables or sweet potatoes. \nYou may double or triple helpings of meat, salad or vegetables. \nEat until you are stuffed. The more you eat the more weight you will lose. \n\nStay on the diet 12 days, then stop the diet for 2 days and repeat. \nDiet Plan:\n\nBreakfast: \nEither 1/2 grapefruit OR 8 oz. juice (unsweetened) \n2 eggs any style \n2 slices of bacon \n Lunch: \nEither 1/2 grapefruit OR 8 oz. juice (unsweetened) \nSalad with any dressing \nMeat any style and any amount. \n Dinner: \nEither 1/2 grapefruit OR 8 oz. juice (unsweetened) \nSalad with any dressing OR a red or green vegetable cooked in butter or spices. \nMeat or even Fish any style cooked any way. \nCoffee or Tea (1 cup) \n Bedtime Snack: \n8oz. glass of tomato juice or 8 oz cup of skim milk. \n \nOkay, enjoy your fad diets or better yet, read the fad diets, laugh at how silly they are, and then eat your favorite food and thank god you wouldn't be silly enough to try one of them :o) \n\n *** ive found the best way to lose weight is cut out sodas, sub sweets with fruits and drink plenty of water and exercise **

A good meal plan to follow and lose weight quickly is the following:\n\n1) Drink 8 glasses of water/ day. Preferably 2 glasses before meals and the rest in between...or whatever works for you.\n\n2) Eat daily three portions of protein. I myself prefer to eat vegetarian protein rather than animal based protein. \n\nFor breakfast eat:\n2 eggs or 1 cup cottage cheese\n2 slices of whole wheat toast\n1 fruit\n2 glasses of water\nsome kind of fat--if you are not allergic to nuts, eat 8 almonds.\n\nSnack\nYou can eat a fruit or a cup of low fat yogurt\n\nLunch\nEat a salad with 1 cup of cucumbers, 1 cup of lettuce, 1 cup tomatoes or whatever vegetable all 1 cup, except for carrots--only 1/4 cup.\n4 slices of vegetarian bologna or a chicken breast\n2 slices of whole wheat bread\nno juice--you may drink iced tea with lemon.\n\n2nd Snack\nanother fruit\n(when snacking stay away from chips, chocolates--if you feel the need to eat something chocolaty, eat a cup of chocolate pudding (Huntz or Jello) if you want chips buy Quaker products, like rice cakes or rice tortilla chips. They are low fat, but very tasty!!!)\n\nDinner\nIncorporate whatever you like, but remember that your plate must be divided into 30% protein, 30% fat and 40%carbohydrates. A typical dinner would be 1 chicken breast, salad and 1/4 cup brown rice.\nIced tea.\n\nSnack 3\n1 cup of popcorn or a glass of milk.\n\nFollow this plan for a week and you'll see the difference =)\nBest regards.

None of those fad diets! Atkins is no good for you, what you need is a balanced diet!\n\nAll you need to do is burn more calories than you eat.. There is no fast way to do it! The best and healthiest way is to do it slowly. That is when it stays off, unless you don't want your new body to be for good. If you need to look good for a certain event, maybe one of those fad diets is for you.. But once you go off them, your weight will be back. And who wants to spend the rest of their life not eating carbs!? Or eating grapefruits.. Come on now..\n\nIt's best done by increasing your physical activity, and either decreasing (if you really want..), or just CHANGING the foods you eat! But if you really can't stand to change your eating habits, then it is possible that some more physical activity could help you lose weight, just more slowly.. It's hard to help someone to lose weight when you don't know their age, weight, height, how much physical activity they are used to, etc. But here is some basic advice:\n\nFitness\n\nTry doing cardio exercise at least 3 times a week, 30 minutes for each of those 3 days. You can split this time up, and do 5 minutes here and there if you'd like. This can be biking, running, walking, jumping jacks, jumping rope, dancing (my personal favorite), swimming, roller blading, and so many more..\n\nTwo times a week, do some kind of strength training for 15 minutes, or as much as you can stand without getting too tired. Basic things.. Sit down on the floor, and get into "butterfly" position. Hold yourself there for a bit. Do some push ups, crunches. Sit with your legs out in front of you and try to touch your toes while keeping your legs straight. Stretching. Things like that.\n\nDiet / Food\n\nEAT BREAKFAST! Do it! EIGHT glasses of water per day. Get eight hours sleep. Eat your basic three meals (not TOO big, remember the importance of moderation and you can eat nearly anything), and slip in a small, healthy snack in between. I will give you a basic idea of a healthy day. I am a vegetarian, but I am assuming you are not.. You didn't give too much info! So here you go..\n\nBreakfast\nOne whole wheat or plain bagel with 2 tbsp light cream cheese or pat of margarine. Some yogurt, and half a banana. It seems like a lot (to me anyway), but with that fitness plan it's fine.\n\nSnack\nOrange\n\nLunch\nPeanut butter (1 tbsp) and jelly (.5 - 1 tbsp) on wheat bread. Baby carrots/celery/lettuce with some lowfat non-creamy dressing.\n\nSnack\nA bag of 97% fat free microwave popcorn, or light butter (yes, a whole bag!!)\n\nDinner\nA bunch of stir fried veggies (mushrooms, broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, etc) with 2 cups of minute rice. With 3 or 4 grilled chicken strips on the side (not too big, maybe an 1 inch by 4 inches).\n\nGood luck.. Stay motivated. :)

Sounds a little cliche but changing your entire lifestyle. \nEat well,  exercise daily.\n\nOnce you get off a fad diet you are just going to gain the weight back.
