A FEW THINGS TO REMEMBER:
The correct way to burn fat and stay healthy is to burn more calories than you consume
You need to make sure you are eating healthy foods while still excercising
If you have a big appetite drink plenty of water so that you will feel full but not consume calories
But you should always eat
If you start to skip meals you will only be more hungry at your next meal and probably eat way too much
Remember, the average persons stomach is as big as a slice of pizza scrunched up into a ball
So you shouldnt be putting more food into your stomach than what fits
Also, it takes aproximately 15-20 minutes for your brain to realize that you are full
so eat slower and you will realize sooner when you are not hungry anymore

ALSO....
i found this artical called "50 Habits of "Naturally Thin" People
How to get Started:Decide how much you want to loose and see how many calories a day it will take to make it happen by year's end.Then, work into your routines however many of these eating tweaks and exercises you need to achieve your goal.
Slash 250 cal.s a day to lose about 25 lbs. in a year, Slash 500 cal.s to loose 50 pounds.
This is based on a 150-pound person: you may need to cut more/ fewer calories depending on ur weight, age & gender. It also assumes your normal calorie intake essentially stays the same and your weight is stable.

First question: How 'fast' is fast? How long do you have before you leave on your vacation?

Second question: Are you more concerned with actual body weight or with inches so you'll look better in clothes (or out of them)?

Third question: Are you willing to moderately restrict your caloric intake while also doing more aerobic exercise?

If you can give me the answers to these questions I can probably give you some hints. If you've got at least 10 days you can lose 10 pounds without any major problem (keeping it off may be a problem if you don't watch your eating and exercise habits while on vacation).

I've helped thousands of people in the last 20 years do this safely and effectively. Of course you should never engage in a weight loss diet or exercise regimen without first consulting with your doctor.

You can reach me via this forum or through my website.

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!

I really like some of the answers people give, most of them are idiots. I used a program called Shapeworks, I lost 13 lbs my first week, and 95 lbs in 8 months, I guess that is pretty fast. I have kept it off for over 4 years now. Here is the webiste I went to: www.loseweightnow.com/tfward

Increase your water intake by 16oz a day, cut back on carbs(don't take them out completly) and lower your food portions. Crash diets are dangerous, and there's really no safe way of doing it. but if your going to, then do it. lifting weights won't make you loose weight as muscle weighs more than fat, but upping your walking or running can help too.

Homeopathic Treatment for Excessive Fat and Weight :-
PHYTOLACCA BERRY's Mother Tincture is perhaps the safest and sure fire way of loosing excessive fat around abdomen. With Phytolacca Berry once you loose the excessive fat and weight you don't get it back because you body takes care of itself after that and keeps you from gathering up excessive fat. It is prescribed after having a baby too, to get the tummy to loose its flab and to make it flatter and tighter. And after loosing weight with this you don't get flabby it tightens up the flab and skin along with helping your body to shed the excessive accumulation of fat around the girth
The dosage is 15 to 20 drops of the tincture in half a cup of hot water thrice a day half hour before or after meals.
Avoid Chocolates, Coffee, Mints, Red Meat and Carbonated and Alcoholic drinks while taking Homeopathic Medicines. You have to take it for at least 30 to 45 days after that you start to feel the results.
To the best of my knowledge its the safest and the most sure fire way of loosing fat and weight and keeping it of for keeps. Excellent remedy for Obese people who cant seem to shed weight despite trying.
Homeopathic Remedies can be found at all Major Herbal Stores or could be bought on line, In most of the world Homeopathic remedies are quite cheap and easy to find and they do not need a prescription.
Take care and God Bless !

I dropped 5 pounds in like 3 days just by running. Cardio workouts are good. And don't snack.

Try doing a dextox diet. Sometimes you can loose up to 8lbs just by detoxifying all the impurities out of your body. Plus it will really boost your energy, spirit, and make you feel cleansed and refreshed.
