Don't be overly concerned about weight. Focus more on looking good and being healthy. Using the following program, I lost 5 lbs a week for eight weeks.
Diet is extremely important. To slim your body you must:
Burn more calories than you eat.
Cut your fat intake.
Eat three cups of fat free low cal yogurt a day (make sure it has live cultures in it) and pineapples. This helps you break down your food.
Do 45-60 min. of aerobic exercise a day (preferably before you eat in the morning). This will attack the fat.
Do 30 min of weight training three times a week. This will build lean muscle which will in turn burn fat.
I lost 40 lbs in two months and have kept it off for two more months doing this. I also took my body fat % from 30% to 14%
Be Blessed

Hi i did 8 years in the army and this worked. Eat like a king for breakfast, a prince for dinner and like a pauper for tea. ie cut you intake down through the day. Dont waste money on gyms just get up and run min 3 miles every day. pref before breakfast. Then do proper press ups, no sets or reps do them till you cant anymore. then sit ups till you cant do any more dont mess about with reps. arms crossed on chest. work till you arms and abs have had enough, then do some more. do this every day and the weight will drop and you arms, chest and shoulders and 6 pack will improve. Aim to run a mile and half in less than ten mins. the army standard is 10 and half mins. good luck

The simplist way to lose wait is to EAT LESS, MOVE MORE.
I lost 3 stone (from 15 to 12) by just cutting out chocolate, biscuits, crisps, cakes and cheese. I still drank alcohol and didn't change any fitness stuff (biking & 5-a-side once a week)
Good Luck.

Eat smaller meals more often...ensuring you have less Kcals then 2000 if you are a women 2500 as a man. (But dont cut it too low. Reduce fat and do excercise....by eating more often but less..your stomach will be less extended and you will find it harder to eat too much.....drink more water...as the body sometimes confusses thirst for hunger. But there is no real quick way of loosing weight safely...its a lifestyle change....forever...you can not diet then binge afterward.

You could follow a sensible Low Glycemic food plan. Exercise including cardio work like walking, bike riding or something that you like. Gyms have tons of equipment and offer support for those who are just getting started.
The Low Glycemic food plan is and has been a wonderful option for me. The weight felt as if it melted off.

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 :)
