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 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.
Good luck!!

Krista says: "Lots of water, 3-4 liters a day, not all at once, but spread it out. Its really easy to down a liter or two while your watching tv or on the computer. Also drink some after you eat the bigger meals of the day, it helps your body pick out the nutrients in food when your food is more spread apart. "
ROTFLMAO!!
There's no proof that anyone needs that much water. NONE. Just folklore, urban myth, old wives' tale. (See references) And the belief that "it helps your body pick out the nutrients" is just plain unfounded. Your body does a fine job "picking out" nutrients with or without excess fluids.
Bottom line: Drink when you're thirsty. Period. Do not obsess over or worry about getting some arbitrary amount of water as a daily "goal". You already get most of the water your body needs from the food you consume. The rest of Krista's advice is reasonable. But she's got some crazy ideas about physiology.

Be your own trainer and nutritionist, the basic rules to losing weight are no soda, no fast food, lots of chicken, fish, fresh (not canned that’s bad) fruits and vegies, whole wheat stuff, yogurt. Not so many cakes and donuts and cookies. Basic common sense for eating, you just need to enforce it. Get all the bad stuff out of the house right away, just toss it or give it away while your still motivated. No alcohol and no smoking if that applies. Lots of water, 3-4 liters a day, not all at once, but spread it out. Its really easy to down a liter or two while your watching tv or on the computer. Also drink some after you eat the bigger meals of the day, it helps your body pick out the nutrients in food when your food is more spread apart. Don’t think that sports drinks can replace water, the only time you need to drink them right after a workout, besides that just stick with water. These rules may be hard to adapt to at first so start with cutting out the things you know you can live without. Then work from there. Remember these are perfect eating habits, it can take you a while to work into it. If you know you can’t live without your one treat a day, don’t fight it by trying to eat something else, just eat it and make sure that’s the only one you cheat on a day. Otherwise you’ll get depressed and quit. Another important point is getting the right amount of sleep every night. You need 8-9 hours of sleep each night for your body to function correctly. This is an important factor of losing weight. Set up a routine for yourself and go to bed at about the same time each night.
As for exercise, lots of cardio. Find something you like. If you have never exercised much before, start with walking 30 minutes a day at a brisk pace. Move on to different terrains that include hills and increase the time spent. After a week or two, try jogging the route. No matter what find an activity you enjoy. Walking to jogging is just an example, try hiking, rollerblading, biking. Once you get into a regular routine, if your not happy with the level of difficulty, try signing up with a gym. Spinning, pilates or kickboxing classes are great. It will also introduce you to working with weights. Talk to a trainer for instruction before using any weights. A cheap investment is a balance ball, it works you stomach while your just sitting on it, like at your computer and its great for posture. There are hundreds of exercises you can use it for for your entire body. I can give you some ideas if you want, just email me. Also for more info on the benefits of water go to www.watercure.com Good Luck! Honestly if you need anything else don't hesitate to IM me, krista_girl86 even if you don't pick me as best answer, i'd be happy to help.

Ok, you need some advice from some people. Here is mine:
I have a cousin who is your height. She weighs about 95 pounds and looks like a scare-crow. You don't need to look like a scare-crow, or do you? Look at some pics of the starving people who has never had a meal for a lifetime. Imagine if that was you when you lost alot more than you should.
Think about this, you are not fat. When my grandma was young, in her 20's, she was 5'6 and weighed 126 pounds. She looked great back then.

Stop with the pills, and I think 60 lbs, is a bit too much for you, but that's just my opinion............
Drink a gallon of water a day,
Exercise for at least 2 hours daily- Nonstop (aerobic exercise- using the stepper, running up & downstairs, jogging)
Try not to eat after 7pm, if you do...........eat ramen noodles, salads, very low-fat food, etc.
I did this, and lost 70 lbs. in 3 months
Good Luck!

So lets get this straight...
125-60=?
65LBS!!
You mean to tell us all that you want to get your weight down to 65Lbs. By the way you phrased your question, It sounds as if you had/have an eating disorder.
At 5'4" and 125lbs, you sound like you are at a perfectly normal weight.
Just be happy with yourself, you'll live longer.

if you lost 60 pounds, you'd look even nastier, leave some meat on those bones, 5' 4" and 125 isnt' bad at all, i suggest if you wanna loose weight, loose about 20 pounds if any, don't go under 100 or you're just gonna be a freak.

1. tons of fluid could be a problem--waterweight?
2. if you're 5'4", you are NOT 60 pounds overweight! Perhaps seeing a therapist about your self image would be the best place to start
