Not so much a diet plan, but you can track what you eat at http://www.fitday.com/ for free. Depending on how much you have to lose, just try to stay within a certain calorie level. I've always heard 2,000 calories if you have 100+ lbs to lose, or 1,800 calories if you have less. Exercise helps speed up your metabolism so you lose more.
There are lots of diets out there, but they all boil down to the above - less calories, more exercise.

a couple of years ago i went on this diet that was fantastic. just follow the diet for diabetics which is a well- balanced- not diet- modified meal plan. i lost 20 pounds in one month by doing this meal plan, drinking lots of water (yuk), and walking about a mile every day. i'm afraid i fell of the wagon, but i'm trying to get back on. also with this plan you can avoid diabetes and know that you are eating a little of everything without depriving your body of anything.

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 :)

glamour magazine has a program. Go to the health and beauty section at glamour.com. Also, 3fatchicks.com has lots of diet reviews and some of them are pretty detailed that you can do at home if it's not like a weight watchers where you have to buy something...
