    The most simple and effective diet around is to LOWER on carb-high foods such as pastas and potatoes. Do not starve yourself because this never works, and sometimes you will end up even bigger than you were before.
    If you are willing to take up a sport, 30mins of exercise a day is brilliant for helping you lose weight, and be healthy in general.
    My dad used this, and he now has a brilliant figure.
    hope this helps

    stick to fruits, veggies, cut out red meat…i substitute turkey/chicken breast for everything. also, oatmeal is great…i have it every morning with a few walnuts and blueberries (both super foods).
    cut out refined sugar and obvious fats (such as mayo, salad dressing, butter, oil, etc.). don’t be fooled by low fat products. many are extremely high in sugar and higher in calories than the regular full fat product!
    for snacking and treats, i have a small handful of baked chips or those yummy mini rice cakes…but always fruit and veggies!!!
    and the absolute MOST IMPORTANT THING…is drink lots of WATER. i swear it is the answer to weight loss, and how simple is that! drink a glass when you wake up, and then another before every snack and meal. it is so important for a healthy body anyway, but it really curbs your appetite!
    don’t forget to exercise, too. my new fav is the biggest loser yoga dvd…is it fun, low impact, non-intimidating, can be done without leaving the house (which in WA state is important…hello rain), and the results are amazing.
    and don’t beat yourself up if you splurge…just start again tomorrow! but remember how important your body is and try to take care of it!!! :o )

    Don’t eat. Joke.
    Erm, I watched this thing on Superskinny vs. Supersized and this woman had like an abdominal massage or something..? anyway she lost like 3 inches from her stomach, but I can’t remember if she lost any weight..
    Or you could try looking at this website: -http://www.channel4.com/health/microsite…

    Honestly it is very hard for anyone to tell you what your body needs. One thing I can offer is drinking water. If you drank 8 glasses a day, by the end of one week you could lose 10 lbs. People gain weight not only by eating but also drinking the wrong things, water is the best way, no calories, no sugar. Dieting will not help lose weight alone. I am a young mother and trying to lose the last 15 lbs of baby weight. After my first son I ate so healthy, chicken, veggies, lots of water and I walked every where. I had no car at the time so it was essential and I went form being a size 10 down to a 3 by the time my son was 1. Exercise is the right way to go!

    Try a vegetarian diet. No beef, no pork, no chicken, no fish. Or at least cut back on meat. Eat only fish, turkey and chicken – two or three times a week. Not fried, either. Baked, steamed, broiled or roasted. Egg whites, low-fat cheese, low-fat peanut butter, nuts, seeds, tofu, legumes all have the protein you need in them.
    I am a vegetarian, have four kids and am a size 4. People ask me how I got the pregnancy weight off and have kept it off all the time. I don’t eat meat. Haven’t for four years.
    Oh, and I do yoga four days a week. But I’ve fallen behind a few times on the yoga and still never gained weight because of my diet.
    And you’d be in good company. Carrie Underwood, India Arie, Pink, Pamela Anderson, Toby Maguire (Spider-man), Prince, Paul McCartney, Alyssa Milano and Joss Stone — the list goes on — are all vegetarians.

    I lost about 60lbs over the like 18months by simply cutting soda out of my diet, I might allow myself 1 -3 sodas a MONTH, it was the only real change I made to my life style, now I’ve only got about another 10lbs to go to reach my ideal weight :) Very gratifying… and best of all.. after a few weeks I didn’t miss the soda at all, I still get to eat everything I want whenever I want (just got done scarfing down a brownie I made last night, fudge brownie with chocolate chips caramel and chocolate syrup topping with pecans YUM!) I got fat for the most basic of reasons. I love food, and I physically cant do a lot of exercising.. at least not anything that involves leg usage.. sigh.. so I was left with dieting to loose weight… I didn’t want to stay fat.. but didn’t want to give up food.. so I compromised :) It’s not a quick fix, but it is a permanent one… I’ve maintained my current weight for like 9 months without a thought to it :) i really hope it helps you, I hate to hear of people starving themselves or working themselves half to death to try and lose weight. Most diets don’t work cause they’re hard to stick to, same with exercise regiments, you sort of have to create your own thing, something easy for you, then you have a plan that’ll work, the only “quick fix” to weight that has a prayer of lasting more than 6months is surgery

    Yes! Eat whole grains & beans, veggies raw or cooked, fresh fruit, lean meats like chicken and turkey and some low fat dairy. Eat the most from the first items and go down as listed eating the least in dairy. Can’t get any more simple! Munch on healthy food all day instead of eating big meals, Drink water or 100% fruit juice, no soda diet or not and EXERCISE!

  8. wholesale swarovski crystals on January 31st, 2010 at 11:42 pm

    the first answer was 100 % right. The first thing is eating right. plan ur meals. Drink lots of water, if u have to have soda or tea make sure its diet, try to cut out or replace sugars. NO junkfood! Eat ur three meals a day add in a healthy snack. It will be really hard at first but ur body will get used to it. And u have to excercise. Cardio! Walk for an hour a day! Get an excercise DVD but u have to do soemthing that will burn fat. Do it all everyday

    Read up on low carb. I find it so easy and tasty. Example of my daily diet:
    Breakfast: Eggs, Bacon and one piece of sugar-free wheat bread toast & butter.
    Lunch: Salad with all the goodies including shredded cheese, and sunflower seeds. I make my own sweet and sour French low carb salad dressing that is great. I also have about 6 or 7 hot chicken wings- no breading.
    Dinner: Meat fish or chicken of some kind, a green vegetable, and that large awesome salad I fill with everything.
    Low carb means LOW SUGAR you have to READ all the labels. I even buy low sugar Heinz Ketchup. I use my imagination and create excellent dishes. I have maintain my weight for about 5 years on this diet.
    It is really important to drink alot of water also. Good luck!

    Actually, you don’t need to diet per se in order to lose weight, the one thing which clearly showed results for me is green tea, it can be seen in the resource box below, they have a few free trials left, it has been reported in Reader’s Digest and CNN. I melted away twenty five pounds, it clearly does produce results!

  11. Hummer H1 Parts on February 1st, 2010 at 11:11 am

    Eat a lot of protein, like chicken, grain, like bread ( no rice) vegetables, like broccoli, fruits, like apple. You have to have a balanced meal and good exercise each day to loose all that weight Run and jog 20 – 40 minutes a day will help you with weight lost also.
    Hope this helps. anything about weight and.diet let me know.

  12. Rebeca on February 1st, 2010 at 3:17 pm

    The best way to lose weight is to eat less fattening food. For example, you can eat fish or tuna instead of chicken and steak. Also eat a lot of fruit, it’s delicious, sweet and doesn’t have too many calories. You should also excercise a little. Maybe ride your bike or go take a walk around the park. You’ll see results in a falsh!

  13. Nathania on February 1st, 2010 at 6:51 pm

    I have tried out every diet under the sun but nothing worked as effectively as acai berry. I know they say that pills do not work, however they certainly worked for me, and they’ve been featured on CBS News too. There’s a free trial happening right now at http://ranabamt.sensitiveit.com , give it a try, how worse could it make things?

  14. swarovski rhinestones on February 1st, 2010 at 10:40 pm

    This ALWAYS works for me..
    1. Drink 8 waters a day(no soda)
    2. 30min. of cardio(treadmill/biking ect.)
    3. Eat small healthy snacks every two hours
    (Greatly increases your metabolism so when you burn maximum fat and you don’t burn muscle too.)
    4. stay away from simple carbs which are bad. You can have some carbs, but pick one and have it be a small portion.
    Good luck!

    cereal or oatmeal for breakfast, deli meat sandwich for lunch (whole wheat bread, no mayo), white meat chicken or ground turkey, brown rice, and veggies for dinner, for snacks stick with fruit
    I’ve lost about 12-15 lbs in the last couple of months using variations of this diet and moderate exercise

  16. Brandon on February 2nd, 2010 at 11:03 am

  18. Ernie Oz on February 2nd, 2010 at 7:31 pm

    Nothing exotic necessary. Cantaloupe, broccoli, beans, rice, tofu, steamed chicken breast, and dinner rolls. Most importantly, exercise a lot, sweat a lot, and try to have daily bowel movements.

  19. valerie on February 2nd, 2010 at 10:07 pm

    Pick a favorite sport: volleyball, swimming, running, etc. and do it at least 3 times a week. Consistency is key.
    Also, eat fried foods or dessert only 1 time a week. Eat more fruits and veggies. Vitamins B and E help also.

  20. ecidood on February 3rd, 2010 at 2:12 am

    If there was such a thing, do you think anyone would be overweight.
    But, here’s something that will work like you are asking.. Swallow a tape worm.. No salads or meal plans and forget the exercise stuff.

  22. Lane on February 3rd, 2010 at 8:33 am

    Well, heres an idea. Start eating healthy and exercise. Thats as simple as it gets. Its really not hard to loose weight at all. All you have to do is eat right and run on a tredmill or do something!

  23. Smartphone Software on February 3rd, 2010 at 1:01 pm

    I have lost 95 lbs by using recipes on http://www.eatingwell.com, watching the calories I eat, and exercising. The site has thousands of recipes and most are very easy and cheap to make.

    Well since you mentioned salad, but simple, try chicken salads. Stick with three small meals a day and drink nothing with calories. Drink plenty of water, and take vitamins.

  27. Chauncey M on February 4th, 2010 at 4:56 am

    stay off trans fats like fried foods & junk food. pastries. what taste really good is usually not good for yu.

  28. Jennifer on February 4th, 2010 at 9:02 am

    just cut off portions when you eat and eat slower. dont drink sodas or too much water during meals because it refreshed your mouth causing you to want to eat more.

  29. Erica W on February 4th, 2010 at 10:05 am

  31. Patti on February 4th, 2010 at 8:15 pm

    Fasting every other day is a good way to start losing weight if you are grown and not pregnant or sick. You don’t have to buy anything special and it helps to adjust your appetite.
