It's kind of embarrasing to put it online and all...It would be for any girl. But i REALLY need to lose 20-30 lbs in maybe 2 to 3 mnths. I don't want to be at that point where i have to learn to make my own clothes. I've tried situps, and they don't work very well. At least, not for me. I've heard that complex carbohydrates and vitamin b12 (or B something) do the trick, but i'm not sure...

First don't think of it as losing weight fast!
Weight gain is usually the result of too much intake and not enough output.
First thing to do is cut back on your portions of whatever your eating.
Next drink more water. Not juice, not soda, not milk, not liquids in general, Water!
Stay away from fried foods and pay attention to the ingredients of the foods that you do eat. Cut back on the sodium consumption.
Eat more fiber. Less meat. More veggies and fruit, and cut your fat intake by 75%.
Think of your body as a machine that burns fuel called calories. When any calorie is burned it leaves a residue and if you eat food that's high in fat the residue turns into plaque. That's a gross oversimplification of the process, but it's close enough.
Just don't get hung up on a diet that goes overboard on any of the food groups in particular. The key to a healthy body is balance.
Walk, Run, Laugh, Swim, Ride a Bike, do stuff, and don't ride in the car unless you just have to. Walk to the bus stop or train or subway then walk from the stop to your destination.
That's it, no secret. Eat less, exercise more. You'll sleep better, you'll lose weight, you'll feel better, you'll even be smarter, really!
Good luck and God Bless!

Have you thought about fasting? short term fasts are good where you only drink juice and water (liquids only). If you are spiritual, fasts are great to get in touch with God as well. If you do a spiritual fast, you can go a lot longer. You will need to drink plenty of water and a mixture called 'the master cleanser' which you can google online.

If not that, then you need to cut down on your food intake and do some serious exercising. The way to lose weight is to burn more calories than you consume. Eat fruit and veggies and work out. Drink lots of water - you will retain water (water weight) if you do not drink enough of water. That could be up to 5-10 pounds alone of water weight.

Good luck!

Tips to maintaining weight loss

Fad diets may do the trick temporarily by giving you fast results and helping you reach your goal. But the downside to those same diets is they don't prevent the weight from coming back. You could Keep the weight off and maintain your desired look by following the suggestions

Do not do dieting

Eliminate the word diet from your vocabulary. The key steps to long-term weight control are establishing a healthy eating pattern and being active. To maintain weight loss you must balance calories with the energy you burn through physical activity.

Prepare meals at home

Cooking at home is a great way to save money and control what you eat.So prepare meals at home.

Snack right

Stop in-between-meal hunger pains by snacking on a piece of fresh fruit, raw. cut vegetables or a container of low-fat yogurt. These snacks are a healthy alternative to chips, cookies or candy.

Setting the goals that looks realistics

Telling yourself that you're going to eat salads at every meal and run 10 miles a week may be a bit much. Instead, set smaller, realistic goals and add a new challenge weekly.

The diet is too much to handle becaue you're making yourself uncomfortable. If you make yourself uncomfortable with dramatic lifestyle changes, you wont stick with it. I think what will work best for you is one or two small changes at a time. That is how a lot of people do it. My mom used to be big as the side of the house and she started with small changes. First she gave up candy bars and after a week or so she gave up cheese burgers then after another week or so she started walking a little bit.... and just gradually keep adding those small changes. Shes fit now.

I think you could benefit a lot with some nutrition or fitness coaching. Most people need that because they want to change and have all the drive to do it and stick with it, but just don't know what to do or how to start.

Small changes make all the difference. I don't know what you do all day but one small change could be to just start taking stairs instead of an elevator... or if you have whole milk with your cearal, switch to skim or 2% just things like that. Or, if you eat breakfast as school, instead of having the biscuits and gravy, have fruit and oatmeal or whatever else is available that's a better choice. Or stop having ketchup with your French fries (its all sugar). It really does work.

I've spent lots of money on diet clinics and stuff that use drugs or put you on a really strict diet and the results never lasted because it was just too dramatic and I went back to the same bad habits. The only things that ever let to lasting resuts was the small changes that I stuck with... like parking far away from buildings and walking through the parking lot rather than parking as close to the door as I could... I've even joined extreme fitness classes like crossifr and never stayed with them because it was just too much all at once.

One thing you can do that you wont really notice is don't eat everything on your plate... leave like 20% of it. At the end of the month, all that food really adds up.

30 lbs in 12 weeks - can be done with a liquid diet and serious determination. Look up optifast. 800 calories a day, hard workouts you'll get there. It takes commitment though. Why 12 weeks though? 1 pound a week is pretty easy by starting an aerobic exercise program, 30 minutes a day or so and changing almost nothing else....

There are three main ways to lose weight quickly.

1) Use only water as liquid and eliminate all other liquid drinks from your diet. You must drink as much water as possible every day. You must drink about half of your weight. If you have weight of 200 pounds then you must drink about 100 oz of water.

2) The interval between the eating is very important. If you eat once, then you must eat next after 4 hours. You must take breakfast regularly. In the night eat your food three hours before going to bed.

3) Walking is very good. You must walk as much as you can. Walk everywhere you can. Use of elevators and escalators must be reduced and instead of these you must climb stairs more often.

These are some of the fastest ways to lose weight. By just following the simple steps, you can lose your weight very quickly. You must consult your doctor if want to change your diet or exercise routine.

cutting calories is ultimatley the most crucial part of losing weight. excercise is very important too. try cardio instead of sit ups. at least 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week. you may get a quick fix on zantrex and stacker, or any other weight loss supplement. but they may be dangerous so be careful, don't use them for too long. and remember, what's on the inside is way more important than what is on the outside.
