The quickest way is to cut out red meats, starches, breads, sugars, alcohal, and sodas.
Eat veggies (salads are good), soups, and drink TONS of water. If you get hungry between a meal, drink water to fill up.
In moderation eat white meats, and fruits (fruits contain natural sugars, and that can put on weight)
Practice portion control. Yes, you'll feel hungry at first, but think of your goal, and soon your stomach will start shrinking and you won't have that feeling anymore.
Eat 5 times a day. A small breakfast. A mid-morning snack, such as an apple. A small lunch. A mid-afternoon snack, such as carrots. A lite dinner. Do not eat any later than 7pm (6pm is better.)
Go exercise (anything from a walk with your child, to something you can do by yourself) for at least an hour a day, incorporating weight training. Weight training builds muscle. Muscle burns fat. You get the idea. It also gives tone and definition. Since you have a small baby, use them as your weights. There was a program of a mom who used her son for weight training and she went from 19lbs to bikini body in under a year!
Good luck!!

I've tried many diets and couldn't make anything work. Since having my first child, I've been carrying around an extra 30 pounds. This diet just made sense and showed me that everything I was doing before was wrong and a waste of my time.
The plan was so refreshing and so simple to follow. I did everything plan said and lost 23 pounds in the first three weeks. I'm now starting the diet again to lose 7 more pounds. This plan has changed my life.
Get started today!

You need to eat every 3-4 hours, 5 or 6 small meals a day and exercise. Your metabolism will boost when your body gts used to eating consistently on a schedle instead of feeling hungry constantly and stretching when you eat too much during one meal. Drink alot of water and a gatorade when you exercise to keep the electrolytes in your body.
Stretch out really good for about 5-10 minutes to warm your body up before working out. Try Tae Bo Boot Camp, Winsor Pilates fat Burning, or Budokon. They worked great for me- I lost almost 40 lbs so far in about 6 months.
Good luck!

well you need to work out of course.. and since you have a 7 month old baby.. i dont think you have time for the gym.. i advice is to do more housework.. like gardening, dusting, etc. etc..
try to get some dumbells and do some weight traning.. cause for every pound of muscle you gain your body burn extra 30 -50 calories.. plus dont worry women dont have the hormones to bulk up..

exercise more, take baby out for small walks in your neighbour hood everyday, that will also make you more hungry.
