Change your eating habits and your diet. Cut out all the junk foods, sodas and unhealthy snacks if you eat them. If you have a snack, make it a piece of fruit or yogurt, or jello. Make sure you have something for breakfast always, you could have  a salad with a piece of fruit or yogurt for lunch and then have dinner. Drink lots of water. Trim most of the fat off meats and remove the skin from poultry. Take your time when you eat so that your brain has time to signal when you are full. I'm not joking. If you eat in a hurry you are overeating and by the time you feel full you have actually eaten too much. If you don't walk a lot, go for a one half hour walk 3 times a week. In addition to walking, you can also exercise at home for 20 mins. several times a week, do this on the days you are not walking. The exercise does not have to be strenuous exercises (such as lifting weights), just firming and toning ones. Once you lose the weight you want to, don't go back to your old eating habits. Once you lose the weight you want to, you can modify your walking or exercise but don't give it up completely. If you go back to your old routine and diet because you think you have solved the problem, your weight will most likely return.

Well there are several ways to go about loosing weight...First you could find a brand of diet soda you enjoy...it took me awhile to find one that I liked but diet Dr. Pepper and diet Root Beer do the trick for me...\nTo loose a pound a week you need to cut out 3500 calories from what you are eating now...that could mean cutting back on portion sizes and eating lower calorie foods...Also I would highly suggest working exercises into a weight loss plan by even just walking a few days a week for 30 min you can improve your chances of loosing weight and this way you would not have to focus just on cutting calories...either way to loose a pound you have to make a 3500 calorie deficit by some combination of diet and exercise. Good Luck!

You probably know that virtually hundreds of different fad diets, weight-loss programs and outright scams promise quick and easy weight loss. But the foundation of every successful weight-loss program still remains a healthy diet combined with exercise. You must make permanent changes in your lifestyle and health habits to lose significant weight and keep it off.\n\nHow do you make those permanent changes? Follow these six strategies.\n\n\n1. Make a commitment\n\nPermanent weight loss takes time and effort. It requires concentration and a lifelong commitment. Make sure that you're ready to make the necessary permanent changes and that you do so for the right reasons.\n\nNo one else can make you lose weight. In fact, external pressure — often from people closest to you — may make matters worse. You must undertake diet and exercise changes to please yourself.\n\nAs you're planning new weight-related lifestyle changes, try to resolve any other problems in your life. It takes considerable mental and physical energy to change your habits. So make sure you aren't distracted by other major life issues, such as marital or financial problems. Timing is key to success. Ask yourself if you're ready to take on the challenges of serious weight loss.\n\nKeep in mind that no matter how prepared you may be, you'll occasionally overeat or eat foods that you should avoid. Rather than let a setback derail your efforts, accept that it happened and get back on track. Don't expect perfection — and never give up.\n\nMotivate yourself by focusing on all of the benefits of losing weight, such as having more energy and improving your health. Then look at the negatives, such as finding the time to exercise, and come up with creative solutions.\n\n\nMore On This Topic\nWeight loss: Are you ready? \n2. Get emotional support\n\nUltimately, only you can help yourself lose weight by taking responsibility for your own behavior. But that doesn't mean that you have to do everything alone. Seek support from your partner, family and friends.\n\nPick people who you know want only the best for you and who will encourage you. They should be available to listen to your thoughts and feelings and encourage you, perhaps spend time exercising with you, and share the priority you've placed on developing a healthier lifestyle. An ideal support person might be someone who also is participating in a weight-loss program.\n\nSome people fare better with professional support, such as a dietitian or personal trainer. Others benefit from the group support they receive from organizations such as Weight Watchers or Overeaters Anonymous.\n\nIf you do join a group, keep in mind that what you get out of it will be in proportion to what you put into it. If you sit in a corner and just listen, you may hear some good suggestions. But if you actively participate, you're more likely to reap the potential rewards of the group, such as support, encouragement, feeling that you're not alone and helpful suggestions specific to your concerns.\n\n\n3. Set a realistic goal\n\nWhen you're considering what to expect from your new eating and exercise plan, be realistic. Healthy weight loss occurs slowly and steadily. Aim to lose 1 to 2 pounds a week. To do this, you need to burn 500 to 1,000 calories a day through a low-calorie diet and regular exercise. Losing weight more rapidly means losing water weight or muscle tissue, rather than fat.\n\nSet weekly or monthly goals, and then track your progress. Remember that you're in this for the long haul. Anything you undertake too intensely or too vigorously may quickly become too onerous, so you're more likely to give up.\n\nIn addition, make your goals "process goals," such as eating judiciously and exercising regularly, rather than "outcome goals," such as losing 50 pounds. Changing your process — your habits — is the key to weight loss. Make sure that your process goals a

If you are serious about loosing weight, follow these guidelines:\n1. Forget pills and fad diets. They don't work. Even if you loose weight with them you will just gain it back.\n2. Eat healthy, low fat, vegan meals of whole grains, beans, veges, and fruits. \n3. Don't eat dairy products, junk food, fast food, or snack foods. Don't eat anything that is sold in vending machines.\n4. Get lots of aerobic exercise. \n5. Focus on improving your overall health and fitness rather than loosing a particular number of pounds within a particular time frame. Make maintaining overall health and fitness a long term commitment rather than a crash weight loss program. \n6. Set measurable, realistic fitness goals using standard measures of aerobic fitness, such as the cooper test. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooper_test\n7. Educate yourself. Read "The Aerobics Program for Total Well-Being" by Kenneth Cooper to learn how to create an effective exercise program. Read the "The Mcdougall Program : 12 Days to Dynamic Health," by John Mcdougall to learn about healthy eating..

Eat a huge breakfast, a medium sized lunch, and a tiny healthy dinner and eat your last meal before 7 pm every day.  Do that, and walk at a brisk pace twenty minutes a day four days a week and you will lose weight.  Not necessarily quickly, but you will.\nAnd no soft drinks!  Water, fruit juice, and skim milk.

This really isnt safe but if your really eager to loose weight fast i recomend lots of water and depending on your height and weight  drop about 800 - 900 calories a day. most people will recomend only dropping 500 a day but if you wanna loose it fast do like i said. however there can be very dangrous side effects to dropping that many a day. but im not gonna sit here and tell you to eat a well balanced diet since your question was "whats the best way to loose weight fast and easy." Now no diet is easy but i find hamsandwhiches (2 a day with only very light mayo and half slice of cheese to be full feeling) or try eating breakfast Like toast with a little butter and 2 boiled eggs and then lunch a tuna sand. and skip supper. meals like these really dont add up to alot of calories but u have to watch starch and stuff like that. bread can pack on the pounds so very what you eat. Im just being honest with you.so far no one else has really answered your question this way. Oh and for exercise i recomend walking a mile a day and then after every 3 days up it to another mile. Becareful this diet can be dangerous.

There is a special exercise, it's relatively easy to do, and a sure absolutely fail safe way to loose weight without dieting. It's called the push*back and here's how. \n\nSit up straight in front of your plate of food, bowl of chips, whatever, push your chair straight back away from the table, and get up. \n\nWorked for me, it'll work for you

There is no quick fix.  Any weight loss over about a pound per week is dangerous.  Plus, with a quick fix, you go back to the way you were before very easily.  You have to start changing your whole life.\n\nEat healthier\nTake a multivitamin\nGet an exercise partner and routine\nDo the little things (take the stairs rather than elevator, etc..)\nGet plenty of water every day\n\nThis should get you started.  Jogging will target your thighs.  Scorpions target your butt.  Get on all fours and slowly curl one leg up like a scorpion tail.

Cut back on your portions of food. Exercise daily. You may need to do 10 hours of exercise a week before you see a change.

You're not grossly overweight really are you? And I'm not just saying that to be nice.\n\nIf you loose weight too quickly, you'll only end up putting it all back on & will have to do it all over again! I can understand that you've given yourself a deadline, but why the hell didn't you start dieting months ago, rather than leaving it till the last week???\n\nThe only sure way to loose weight, is to eat healthily - plenty of veg (especially green veg), at lest 5 portions of fruit & a small balance of lean meat, bread & potatoes etc per day. Also, drink at least 4 litres of fluid per day, preferably water. You also need to excercise - swimming is great coz it works your whole body, but any kind of excercise is good for you, providing that you do a minimum of 30 minutes every other day & that it leaves you slightly out of breath afterwards.\n\nYou'll find that you will loose weight faster in the first 2 weeks than the rest of the time that you diet, coz you also loose a fair amount of body fluid aswell at first, so you should go to the toilet a bit more often.

Do a colon cleansing, then drink lots of water while avoiding red meat, poultry skin, dark meat of chicken or turkey (avoid these, white meat is okay), eat five times as many greens without butter or adding salt.  To lose weight very fast you must avoid all oils, salts, fats and eat more, yes more, frequently.  Eat a small meal every two to three hours avoiding the above no no's, while drinking water only.  Also avoid caffine and fruit juice, bread, etc. and if you possibly can walk up to 45 minutes everyday.  Stop eating two to three hours before going to bed.\n\nThis should remove ten pounds in two weeks.  Good luck.

Whatever you do, don't loose weight by not eating (completly) or by squeezing the weight in your belly out. Tips: Exercize daily (not too strenuous exercise) and eat healthy foods (vegetables and such). Doing a couple sit-ups (10-40 or 50 if you can) every day might help.
