Its safe to lose 1-2 pounds per week so it'll take you between 12-25 weeks to lose 25 pounds. (3-6 months). This is if you do it the healthy way.
The best way to lose weight is to diet and exercise. If you burn 3500 calories, thats 1 pound. Cut your daily caloric intke by 500 pounds a day. 500/day * 7 days= 3500 calories/week. You will lose 1 pound per week by just cutting out 500 calories per day. If you exercise and burn 500 calories per day you'll lose an additional 3500 calories a week (1 pound) for a grand total of 2 pounds per week lost.
It is unhealthy to lose any more than 2 pounds per week on ANY diet.
Short answer: With diet AND exercise, it will take about 3 months to lose 25 pounds. With dieting OR exercise (but not both) it'll take you about 6 months.

I lost 30 Lbs over about 6 months by breaking up with my boyfriend. I ate at his house all the time and he had a very protine-carb heavy diet because he was a power lifter. When we broke up I started eating things I enjoy like salad and chicken and lost weight passivly. It was the change in diet that did it.

If you didn't eat for 2 weeks, you could conceivably lose 25 lbs., but it wouldn't be a good idea.
