Healthy weight loss means about 2 pounds per week. At that rate you would only lose about 20 pounds in 2 months. 40 pounds IS possible, but not very healthy. You would have to lose 4-5 pounds a week!
If you really want to know how.......starve yourself as much as possible (only eat broccoli, carrots, lettuce, cabbage and celery, drink only water or diet coke). Also, exercise yourself half to death. You MIGHT lose the weight in time.
Please just try a healthy method (like lots of veggies, some fruit, a little bread, and almost no meat, cheese, or other fats, and 30-60 minutes a day of exercise) and be happy with whatever progress you make! The weight won't stay off if you do it the unhealthy way!!

Site below shows how it can be done since besides losing bodyfat, you can also lose retained water. Also you can lose 5 to 20 pounds of weight in an hour. It is waste that makes your waist wider.

You will not learn enough just from reading some posts but you do not need to read an entire book either. Just take the time to learn what foods got you fat by reading everything on the site.

well first off, don't bother wasting time and money with all those diet pills you see on TV. If those were the answer, then I don't think we would still be the fattest country in the world...

I would suggest about an hour or more of aerobic exercise every day. whether it is walking, jogging, biking, jumping rope, anything that gets your heart beating and burns some good ol' calories.

For diet, I would say take smaller portions, and stay away from high fat foods and sweets. Just try to replace those things with the obvious healthy things like fruits and vegetables.

Try the South Beach diet. It worked for me. You probably won't lose 40 pounds, but you may lose a lot. Check out the South Beach Diet book from the library to completely understand the diet.

Here is what you need to do, if you are serious about losing weight and keeping it off. Eat 6 small meals a day about every 4 hours. Here what that will do for you, your metabolism will increase (i.e. Loose weight) and you will have more engry. If you go on a diet and eat less, your metabolism will slow down and store to fat. That is why diets dont work. Only the size of your fist, carbs (examples:baked potato, pasta, oatmeal, beans, corn, melon, apples, fat free yogurt, whole wheat breads)in one and protien (examples:chicken breast, swordfish, shrimp, turkey breast) in the other. You can also eat vegetables and salads with any meal, they dont have none or little fat). 30min cardo exercise every day. Any of these(examples: walking, jogging, swimming,running, biking, ect), Monday cardo, tues upper body (arms: curls, tricep extensions,pull ups, front press)(abdominals: leg pull crunch, leg raises), (chest: bench press, butterfly, pullover)(shoulders: front press, arm pullover, cross county skier machine)(back:seated row, lat pull downs, back extension)(YOU DONT HAVE TO DO IN ONE DAY, mix it up) wed cardo, thurs lower body (legs: leg pull,leg press, squats, lounges) fri cardo, sat upper. Sunday eat anything you want and dont exercising, you do this on sunday so your body doesnt go into starvation mode. YOU NEED TO TAKE SUNDAY OFF. If you stilck with this you will have a great body. also drink aleast 8oz of water daily! Stay away from Mcdonals, Wendys, ect because there is nothing good for you on the menu's even the salads are bad (beaon bits, cheeze, dressing, ect) Good Luck :)

It wouldn't be entirely healthy. If you do it you have to have 1600 calorie/day diet with rigorous escercise everyday. You may want to consult your physician because losing more than 5 lbs/ month is not good for you.

Make your goal more realistic--Instead of wanting to lose pounds, try to rephrase it to "lose inches" or "drop sizes". Eat a lot of whole grains and get vigorous exercise that makes you sweat profusely at least 3 times a week and see what happens.

You need to cut a leg off. That should do it.
