1 pound is about 3500 calories, so to lose 2 pounds per week, you need a defiency of 7000 calories. You can achieve this through a combination of diet and exercise. For diet, cut 500 calories daily. If you would normally eat 2000 calories, cut down to 1500. For exercise, you'll need to burn about 500 calories daily. Running is a good calorie burner. Doing both, should lead to losing 2 pounds per week.

Top weight loss tips
Today there is too much information available on losing weight that has become more confusing and sometimes difficult to follow. It’s actually very easy to lose weight if you follow my weight loss tips.
* Be in right frame of mind
Before you can start any diet program you need to be in the right frame of mind. If you do not feel good about yourself you probably will not want to choose healthy foods. You cannot expect the act of going on a diet to make you feel better about yourself. The only way you can choose to eat a healthy diet to lose weight is if you have a positive self-image.
* Eat whole food
Top weight loss tips
Eat whole foods that are as natural as possible. When you eat whole foods that are full of nutrients your body will know how much to eat and how much not to eat. You do not have to count calories because your body is a wonderful machine.
* Eat fresh fruit
Eat at least two servings of fresh fruit every day. Choose whatever type of fruit is in season.
* Drink enough water
Drink the best weight loss supplement known to man, water. Most people do not know the difference from being hungry for food or thirsty for water. A great deal of times people eat when they should drink. Most likely you will not feel as hungry if you are getting enough water. You will be satisfying the thirst, which is confused for hunger. Water also helps you digest food better. Drinking water before you eat will help fill you up.
* Always chew your food
Always chew your food well. Chewing your food well will ensure that you get the most nutrients out of your food. Getting the most nutrients will satisfy your body therefore you will eat less. Another benefit of chewing well is that it helps aid in digestion.
* Take small meals
Eat small, frequent meals in a day. Large meals tax your digestion system, making it work harder. Taking too much time in between meals makes you hungrier for the next meal.
* Include protein at meal
Include good sources of protein at meal, chicken, fish, legumes, peanut, cottage cheese, eggs or yogurt.
* Shut off TV while eating
Shut off the TV whenever you eat – that includes meals and snacks. Studies show that we automatically eat larger portions when we snack in front of the tube, and typically those foods are high in fat and sugar, which means excess calories!
* Increase your physical activity
Increase your physical activity. Most people are over weight because of a lack of physical activity. Start walking more, bicycling, walks your dog for longer periods of time, swim, dance and leave the car at home when you can. It’s important that you choose a physical activity that you enjoy because you’ll stick with it.

Well I am not a weight loss expert, but my advice to anyone seeking a diet plan, is jsut to eat less in general, and really study up on any dieting plans out there before taking up one. You don't want to hurt your body in the process.

its not that hard. just start counting calories. 3500cals equals 1lb. So try to burn 7000 cals. which means count how many calories you eat and how many you normally burn off. 'be sure to drink a lot of water, and dont cut down on food too much (healthy food that is) because it can put your body into a state of shock, and we wouldnt want that, now would we?! =D

To be honest u can't loose it so quickly; if u do loose it will come back and bite u in the a** & that would not be very nice. So work on it, and work very hard.
