Try this for a start, the go on to a well balanced diet and regular exercise. This does work.......
BASIC FAT BURNING SOUP
6 large green onions 2 green peppers
1 or 2 cans of tomatoes [crushed] 1/2 bunch of celery
1 large head of cabbage 1 pkg. Lipton onion soup
4 cups of water
Season with 1/4 tsp. salt, 1 tsp. pepper, 1/4 tsp. curry, 1 Tbsp. parsley, if desired or bouillon or hot sauce. Cut vegetables in small to medium pieces and cover with water. Boil fast for ten minutes. Reduce to simmer and continue cooking until vegetables are tender. This soup can be eaten anytime you are hungry. Eat as much as you want, whenever you want. This soup will not add calories. The more you eat the more you will lose. Fill a thermos in the morning if you will be away during the day. If eaten for indefinite periods you would suffer malnutrition.
=============================================================
DAY ONE: All fruits except bananas. Cantaloupe and watermelon are lower in calories than most fruits. Eat only the soup and fruits. For drinks; unsweetened tea, cranberry juice, or water.
DAY TWO: All vegetables. Eat until you are stuffed with all the fresh, raw, or canned vegetables. Try to eat green leafy veggies and stay away from dry beans, peas, and corn. Eat along with the soup. At dinner time on this day, reward yourself with a big baked potato and butter. Do not eat any fruits.
DAY THREE: Eat all the soup, fruits, and vegetables you want. Do not have a baked potato. If you have eaten for three days as above, and have not cheated, you will have lost 5 to 7 pounds.
DAY FOUR: Bananas and skim milk. Eat as many as 8 bananas and drink as many glasses of water as you can on this day along with the soup. Bananas are high in calories and carbohydrates and so is the milk, but on this particular day your body will need the potassium and
the carbohydrates, proteins and calcium to lessen your craving for sweets.
DAY FIVE: Beef and tomatoes. You may have 10 to 20 ounces of beef and a can of tomatoes or as many as 6 fresh tomatoes on this day. Try to drink at least 6 to 8 glasses of water
this day to wash away the acid in your body. Eat the soup at least once this day.
DAY SIX: Beef and veggies. Eat to your heart's content of the beef and vegetables this day. You can even have two or three steaks if you like with the green leafy vegetables, but no baked potato. be sure and eat the soup.
DAY SEVEN: Brown rice, unsweetened fruit juices and vegetables. Again, stuff yourself. Be sure to have the soup at least once today.
At the end of the seventh day, if you have not cheated on the above diet, you will have lost 10 to 17 pounds. If you have lost more than 17 pounds, stay off the diet for two days before resuming again from day one.
This seven day eating plan can be used as often as you like. As a matter of fact, if correctly followed, it will clean your system of impurities and give you a feeling of well-being as never before.
After only seven days of this process, you will begin to feel lighter by at least 10 and possibly 17 pounds, having an abundance of energy. Continue this plan as long as you wish and feel the difference.
This diet is fast, fat-burning, and the secret is that you will burn more calories than you take in. It will flush your system of impurities and give you a feeling of well-being. This diet does not lend itself to drinking any alcoholic beveragesat any time because of the removal of fat build-up in your system. Go off the diet at least 24 hours before any intake of alcohol.
Because everyone's digestive system is different, this diet will affect everyone differently. After day three, you will have more energy than when you began, if you did not cheat. After
being on this diet for several days, you will find your bowel movements have changed. Although you can have black coffee with this diet, you may find that you don't need the caffeine after the third day.
DEFINITE NO-NO'S: Fried foods, bread, alcohol, no carbonated drinks, including diet drinks. stick with water, unsweetened tea, black coffee, unsweetened fruit juices, cranberry juice, and skim milk. If you prefer, you can substitute broiled fish or baked chicken {skinless} for the beef on only one of the beef days. You need the high protein in the beef the other day.
The Basic Fat Burning Soup can be eaten anytime you feel hungry. Eat as much as you wish. Remember, the more you eat, the more you will lose. Continue this plan as long as you wish and feel the difference both physically and mentally.
Any prescribed medication will not hurt you on this diet.

Quick fixes usually don't work long term, so don't go for those. Nor tips from celebrities as they usually have hordes of assistants, personal trainers, dieticians and wads of cash and time to make these work out.
For ordinary mortals, always keep in mind, moderation is the key, whatever diet you follow. I can recommend you to become a vegetarian(I am one) because your diet will be limited to vegetables and fruits and by-products. But then again, there are lots of vegetarians who are full bodied probably because they have not exercised moderation. Keep in mind calorie count, your metabolism and your lifestyle. If you work in an office, just pencil pushing, and not much physical activity, you should limit your calorie intake to about 2000 or less.
For exercise, the best tip is, no pain, no gain unless you are one of those with really good genes who don't get lumpy no matter how lazy they are. It does not necessarily mean you have to join a club or go to a gym regularly(I don't), but to have at least a number of physical activities that you do regularly. Climb stairs, walk a mile or two regularly, have a 20-min stretching exercises everyday, do your laundry by hand, at least the delicate ones and undies, clean the house by yourself instead of hiring a cleaner, cook your own meals, make your bed every morning and probably other bed related exercises.
Last but not the least, consistency makes or breaks a practice. Be resolute and have self-discipline.

The following healthy living recommendations will help you if your trying to lose weight, have aspirations of building lean muscle mass, are attempting to get a wash board stomach, or just want to feel better:
*1) Burn more calories then your consuming everyday and measure your results using the following formula: Calories Consumed minus Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) minus Physical Activity. Get a fitness calculator that you can put on your cell phone and computer. This will allow you to easily calculate this formula, log your daily calorie consumption, and log your physical activities.
*2) Eat natural and organic foods found on earth versus something created by a corporation to make money. Eat meals in small portions throughout the day and take a good multi-vitamin supplement.
Avoid “High Glycemic Load Carbs” (sugar, pastries, desserts, refined starches such as breads, pasta, refined grains like white rice; high starch vegetables such as white potatoes) and drink lots of water.
Do not try fad diets. Here is an excellent food pyramid that anyone can follow: http://www.rayandterry.com/html/images/PyramidLRG.gif?osCsid=26a424be471d1337e7c2f105d5c64d9d
*3) Exercise on most days by doing cardiovascular training and/or resistance training activities.
Read a book or find a certified trainer to make sure your doing all resistance training exercises correctly. A great book to buy that teaches you the resistance training basics is “Weight Training For Dummies”. A superb magazine to buy with excellent resistance training routines that will not get you bored is "Muscle and Fitness". Signup for the free newsletter.
A good book to buy that teaches you the cardiovascular training basics is “Fitness For Dummies”.
*4) Get plenty of sleep. Sleep experts say most adults need between seven and nine hours of sleep each night for optimum performance, health, and safety.
*5) Educate yourself continually on health issues. A good free publication is “Dietary Guidelines For Americans 2005”. A superb book to read is “You The Owner’s Manual”. An excellent periodic publication is the “Nutrition Action Health Letter”.
*6) Make a life long commitment to good health. A great test you can take to measure your biological age is at http://realage.com Look at other areas where you can improve your health. For example, make improvements on the quality of the air you breath. Review outdoor air quality forecasts where you live and get an indoor air purifier. Email me if you want a good air purifier recommendation and if you have other questions.

Eat healthy in small portions, excercise and drink plenty of water.
Drink water, first thing in the morning, drink water when you are eating (fills u up faster), drink water as often as possible. If possible time your water intake and measure quantity so you have enough. eg Morning, Afternoon, Evening, during lunch, during breakfast, during dinner.
If you want to burn fat, during exercise first 30 mins or less do enough cardio to get your heart rate up. Then exercise on your problem areas after that.
On days I can't excercise, I just turn on the radio and dance by myself in my house, while cleaning or something another thing you can do for fun, no one sees you, you don't have to be good at it.
Measure your food, best bet prepare it your self, use less salt or no salt, (I use seasoning salt or onion salt, less sodium). I have a bowl I measure my food with.
I drink green tea to help digestion and aloe to aid and cleanse me. (horrible taste). I snack on baby carrots and cherrie tomatoes when I feel like snacking on something. I always have breakfast. Starts your metabolism up bright and early. I try to slow down on the fried food if I can bake it I will go with the baking to get the same taste.
If you want to start a healthy diet system, I suggest a good cleansing of the system, maybe with castor oil (taste horrible) or whatever, you do it once cleanses your colon and then you start your diet.
Also initially when you start depending on how heavy you are you might want to try to eat your dinner early to give it time to digest or slow down on carbs at night if you don't have enough time to burn it but if you exercise at night before going to bed, just ignore that line.
I lost 10 pounds in 2 months and 3 inches around my waist. I have a crazy schedule at work and I eat everything. I was going for 15 pounds in 8 months but I guess things just went too fast.
Consistency is what makes all the difference, make a habit of it you won't notice it.

Yes, counting fat grams. Stay below 30 grams per day.
22-28 seems to be ideal. Drink 6-8 glasses of water per
day and get about 1/2 hour of exercise 3-5 days/week.
