please please PLEASE don't go on one of these calorie, carb, points counting diets etc...... i don't know of anyone who has the willpower to actually do the counting let alone stick to the diet!
just start eating healthier, watch the saturated fat you eat (fat that is solid at room temerature e.g. bacon rind, the fat in cheese, beef dripping ...) don't deprive yourself of anything or it will just do your head in, you'll want it all the time!
if you fancy chocolate, have one of those little freddo bars by cadbury, tiny bars of chocolate that satisfy the craving. instead of crisps, try seasons by quaker: dont be put off by the fact they're crispbreads, its the same as eating anything made out of corn e.g salt and vinegar chipsticks, wotsits etc! they taste gorgeous (not 2 fussed on the cheese and onion ones tho, a bit bland for me!) and they only have 2.5g of fat, 0.4g of which saturates, fantastic! they do have over 100 calories, but if you're eating plenty of fruit and veg based meals throught the day this is fine.
try this site for healthy recipes (you can even filter the search results for recipes containing the most amount of calories and fat etc you want, or if you have to avoid certain foods you can use the filter to do this too, really good idea) http://www.recipezaar.com. its brilliant.
look for healthy soup recipes to take to work. they're so easy to make and last up to 3 days in the fridge so once you've made it you dont have to worry about what to have for a few days! just have a brown bread roll with it, i'm not keen but kingsmill ones are lovely. but always use stock granules, much healthier and easier, and i actually prefer using them. the knorr chicken one is brill, i havent tried the vegetable one yet though.
chicken and turkey are the leanest meats, and chicken is sooooooooo versatile theres so many recipes for it! even if its just grilling chicken with seasoning, like the schwartz shotz, little sachets of seasoning like chargrill, bbq, cajun etc makes it much more exciting and its so easy! served up with a nice big salad with a bit of fresh lemon or lime juice for more interest, or low fat dressing (you can buy the one you get with a macdonalds side salad in tesco!) and a small jacket potato or some new potatoes. mmmmmmmm!
the bbc food site has nice recipes, too. just look for simple ones that dont take too long or dont require ingredients you'll use once and throw away.
i haaaaaaate exercising but it does make a difference and you see the weight start to come off a bit sooner: grab a mate, a dog or a friends dog if you dont have one and try to have a few walks throughout the week. dont laugh at this bit, but buy a skipping rope and skip on the spot in the garden for as long as you can whenever you can, and try using a trampette when watching your favourite programmes instead of sitting there trying to fight the urge to snack!
hope this helps, if you want a few recipes or a few more tips, just let me know by answering one of my questions and i'll come back to answer more of yours! good luck :)

10 lbs quick? depends on how fast you can speed up your metabolism. From experience (I went from 300 to 166, and back up to 193 cuz I lost too much weight), this is what I did. We are made to graze, that is nibble throughout the day, not eat three meals. I eat about 6-8 times a day, but not big meals, and I couldn't eat a big meal if I wanted to now. Personally, I like to start my day w/trail mix cuz it has all I need to get going. Carbs are good (peanuts provide slow digesting carbs that help burn fat better). Also, for some reason, yogurt is one of the best things you can eat on a daily basis to help weight loss, something to do with calcium. And avoid, at all costs, HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP, no matter how healthy the food claims to be. If HFCS is an ingredient, the food will turn to fat. It's kind of like a diabetic's reaction to insulin (or the lack of).
As for the multiple 'snacks' instead of 3 meals...after 4 hours the body's blood sugar level gets low and we store fat and burn up the good muscle fats instead for quick energy. eating every 4 hours keeps your body from storing this fat.
I'm not an expert in health and fitness, but I am a success story with this method. Hope it helps.

Losing weight in one week
Losing weight is difficult. But here I am introducing you some tips to lose a small amount of weight in a healthy that that is also within a week.
Steps to losing weight fast
* Get a set of small hand weights, 3, 5 or 8 lbs.
* Do five to ten minutes of weight lifting for a half an hour after each meal. Lie on your back and slowly lift yourself up with weights in each hand. Do this daily for the full seven days.
* Before or after you take a bath or a shower each day, do five minutes of jogging in place, your weights in hand.
* Do not eat greasy foods. Drink only water and fruit juice. Eat a portion of vegetables at every meal.
* In the morning try to eat fruit. Do NOT dump heaps of sugar on your cereal.
* Follow this regimen for seven days and you will see results.
* Take time to cook, Make food look appealing; don't be afraid to try new things. If you're not sure how to prepare or eat things you can go on an online search engine (such as google) and look how recipes and how to eat things.
* It is a shown fact that one of the "weight loss tips" is not true, many of us believe that if we eat late at night the food turns directly into fat. This is only a myth, food is stored all day into fat, it has nothing to do with time. Make sure you eat a lot of protein, this is important because if you don't have enough protein in your diet you will lose muscle and not fat.(Muscle will be burned but not as much).And finally have fun with it! Make up a dance or jump rope to music, getting active doesn’t mean boot camp!
Quick tips
* Eat plenty of vegetables with each meal.
* Drink plenty of water
* Before buying any food, look for carbs, calories and sugar in the ingredients. You'll want to cut down on all three.

There is no one single Paleo Diet, as our ancestors from all over the world ate dramatically different diets depending on the climate where they lived, their landscape, accessibility to water bodies, and the latitude that they lived. This is a detailed meal plan for the paleo diet https://tr.im/XlXVC
In some cases, a Paleo Diet may be 90% plant foods and 10% animal foods, and in other cases, a Paleo Diet may be 90% animal foods and 10% plant foods.
For example, our ancestors that lived near the equator had year long access to more plant materials such as root vegetables and various fruits, veggies, and nuts.
On the other hand, our ancestors that lived at higher latitudes further away from the equator only had access to fruits and vegetables seasonally at one specific time period per year, and had larger periods of the year where they ate a higher % of meats, organ meats, fish, and other animal-based foods, or fermented foods that could be stored for winter.

The worked out solution :
you have to ascend and descend the 3 story building or 3 flooors of ur building 7-8 times in single go in morning. but dont walk. do run on steps.. it will definitely looos fat from face and sides of ur abdmen
But it will bring u tired as well as the sweat a lot. but this is a good sign of workability of exrcise . work out and tell me within a week how much u loose ..... but b regular.
and then eat whatever but in modderate quantity .dont b afraid of calories and all, exercise will take care of it.
