Depending on how much your starting weight is...I'm guessing not much because you only need to lose 15lbs......you can probably lose up to 10lbs safely in one month.

This can be easily done without any crazy diets or supplements. Eat balanced meals throughout the day. Snack on lots of fruits and veggies to keep you satisfied and away from junk food. Don't go below 1200 calories a day unless permitted by a doctor. If you go unde that number your body will react as though it is being starved and will actually hold on to fat longer to survive.

Exercise!!!!!!!
If you were to do two thirty minute cardio work out sessions a day about 4 or 5 days a week.....you access weight will be off in no time!!

Strength training for 3 days a week will also give you FASTER and better looking results. By building lean muscle (don't worry you won't bulk up) you will increase your metabolism and burn more fat naturally.

Good Luck

If you're an active person and you burn more calories than you ingest, then no. Carbs are best for breakfast because we can burn them off throughout the day. For dinner, just cut back on the carbs and have some veggies or lean meat.

Although the BEST (healthiest) carbs come from the sugars in fruits. But if this cupcake/donut fest is only an occasional splurge, don't worry about it. We all need a break every once in a while.

I tend to eat a lot of carbs before I get my period (so that could be a reason), or you could be under stress, which makes you crave carbs. Like I said, don't freak out about it. If you think you're getting a "tummy" cut back on the sugars and choose some healthier foods. Even going for a walk after a meal can help tremendously.

Well....you should have framed your question like "How much weight should I loose in a month?" Because one can loose or get as much as he or she wants....but by medical standard it is not advisable. So one should try to reduce weight by following several measures....one of them is streneous morning walk without taking even a cup of tea in-between. (Of course I am assuming that you are in your twenties.) Another one is avoiding salty and oily foods.....I am not saying you go on fasting as much as you can....but an entire day's fast would certainly help you to control your weight problem. Since your concern is concerned only with 15 pounds, I think the best way to achieve success is following five miles morning walk + pure veg. meal.....(if you can skip the dinner....it will be a welcome feature.) Try it.

It is mostly NOT your fault, if you need to lose weight. The way you have been taught to eat is responsible for making obesity the number one health problem in the world (according to Atlantic Monthly magazine) replacing hunger and infectious disease. You need to re-learn how to eat so you can become thin. Not a diet, but diet lifestyle.

running, running and more running.... it is the fastest way. I used to run one block, walk two, run one, walk two for five kilometres. Then run 2, walk 1 etc until I could run the whole way... it is the best way to lose weight. Just get good shoes (it's important).

I have lost around 60 lbs in 6 months and I will tell you what not to eat. The first myth we have been told is that fat is bad. Sugar and carbohydrate are the big nasties. In fact, reduced fat food that has had some of the fat removed is actually more fattening than the regular food because the removed fat in most cases has been replaced with carbs! This is the main reason why you must absolutely stay away from ALL processed food with no exception. Eat fresh and natural. You must have 3 meals a day and get into a routine so your body knows when to expect food. Your body is capable of doing exquisite things to avoid weight loss if it thinks it’s going to get starved, so you must feed it and regularly.

The other thing you must do is keep your insulin as low as possible by getting sugar and carbs in your diet as close to zero as you can and not having ANYTHING between meals except water. Also having at least 5 hours between one meal and another. The last meal of the day must be no later than 9pm. Insulin is a hormone that will absolutely block fat and protein burning in your body and force it to burn sugar, that's how it works. You will NOT lose weight with your blood stream flooded with insulin, even with exercise. It’s impossible. You must have at least 8 glasses of water a day in order for your liver and kidneys to excrete the fat from your body this is crucial.

Now, what you must stay away from and I mean, non at all. Bread, pasta, rice, pastry, flour of any kind, sugar, potato, onion, parsnip, sweet potato, pumpkin, beetroot, carrots, peas, beans, beer, sweet wine, spirits, spreads like butter and margarine and be very careful of sauces and condiments. Fruit and milk should be taken very, very sparingly because they are fattening. Fruit is full of sugar too, only a very small amount. Avoid all processed food including diet soda it will stimulate insulin. 3 cups of black tea or coffee WITH meals a day is OK. Use Stevia for a sweetener.

OK, if you are still with me, what can you eat? In a nutshell you replace the carbs you have removed with protein and green leafy vegetables. Do not mix protein only 1 per meal. This is what you can eat. Lean meat, poultry, fish, cheese, yoghurt and eggs are your permitted proteins. Cauliflower, cabbage, sprouts, broccoli, capsicum, mushroom, celery, zucchini and a small amount of tomato. You can have unlimited amounts of lettuce and cucumber but ONLY at meal times. You can use balsamic vinegar as a dressing; mustard is ok too but only made from the powder. Shop bought is full of sugar! Curry powder in cooking can be used as well. One tablespoon of olive oil is ok per day, in cooking and as a dressing. Garlic is OK but not shop bought; you guessed it, full of sugar. Use fresh.

I will GUARANTEE if you stick to this you will loose heaps of weight, fast. I know it's not easy and you need the support of your family too.

Just another couple of things I forgot. NO breakfast cereal and avoid really heavy exercise you will just burn glycogen in your muscles, not fat and it will just make you sore and tired. You need prolonged gentle exercise to burn fat like walking. You don't need to exercise at all on this diet as long as you're moving about. Last but not least read food labels and look at the ingredients. Avoid foods like the plague with more than 5 grams of carbohydrate per 100 grams. If you like a drink, Semillon Sauvignon Blanc (very dry and low in carbs) with a little soda water is OK with meals.

Good Luck. Jules, lecturer. Australia.
