If you drink alcohol-- STOP---guranteed weight loss especially the gut , your skin will look better too and you will have more energy!
Fasting is only recommended for 1-2 days max.
A no carb diet would be ok if you have alot of body fat,otherwise you will lose muscle and feel weak and tired.
Weight watchers wuick start will take of about 5lbs in a week, but you starve and it's mostly water weight

I caution you on your mindset. First, I warn that fad/crash diets are usually short-term solutions to something that should be a life-long commitment toward health and fitness. Many are completely worthless and a waste of time and effort.

You've accomplished an important step by deciding to do something about how you look/feel. However, by developing a proper fitness plan (again something that should be considered a life-long commitment), you will gain benefits that crash diets will never provide.

Your next step should be identifying a quantifiable objective. This means that you should pick some method to gauge your progress as you execute a methodology. My recommendation is to measure your body fat percentage. I assume you intend to shed body fat and not necessarily total body weight. If not, you should reassess your objective. The reason is that as you commit to proper nutrition and exercise, you will begin to shed body fat and generate lean body mass (muscle tissue), which weighs more than fat. In initial weeks, you may not recognize a significant change in your total body weight even as you are steadily and positively progressing towards a total transformation.

I recommend getting your body fat percentage professionally checked (doctor's, fitness trainer, etc). By getting a proper check (caliper method is great), you can more accurately measure your body fitness and the progress you make every 12 weeks (which is the proper time frame for measuring significant progress). Two weeks is an unrealistic time frame to measure fitness progress. Drastic progress in such a short period of time is unhealthy and potentially dangerous.

With this information you can have an even better method of goal-setting and progress measurement. The next step will be methodology to acheive your goals.

The secret is acknowledging the true purpose of food as fuel rather than entertainment. Focus on protein, fats, and carbohydrates and learn about each of them. A little bit of research online will teach you a lot. Remember, don't diet; change your eating lifestyle. Doing so will change your life for the better. For the exercise, consider it a priority to include it into your routine.

Anyway, if you want it simple, here it is in ten steps:
1. protein is good...eat plenty (about 30% of your caloric intake)
2. fats are good and bad...know the difference
3. saturated and trans fats are the bad ones - limit these
4. poly- and mono-unsaturated fats are good - don't be afraid of them
5. carbohydrates are good and bad...know the difference
6. fibers and complex carbs are the good ones - eat these (about 40% of your caloric intake)
7. sugars and simple carbs are the bad ones - limit these, particularly late in the day (stay away from sodas and chips!)
8. drink water - lots and lots and lots of water. It's the only drink you need. Anything else is either wasted or simply bad for you
9. Eat 4-6 "meals" a day to boost your metabolism.
10. A meal is defined as a portion of a low-fat, protein rich entree, a portion of veggies for vits/mins, and a portion of complex carbs. (You can get these combined as a health shake)

For exercise, it's even simpler:
1. 4-6 hours per week
2. 45-90 min each day you exercise
3. do aerobic exercise (20-40 min) every day you exercise
4. work abdominals every day you exercise (between sets makes it easy)
5. do chest and triceps exercises on one day
6. do back and biceps exercises on a different day
7. do legs and shoulder exercises on a different day
8. do your exercises in sets (i.e. 3 times with 6-12 repetitions each)
9. keep a record of what you do to measure progress.
10. when your progress stalls (called "plateau"), switch up your routine.

YOU CAN DO IT!

Treadmill for an hour in the morning and again at night is a sure fire way to kick things into high gear. Any "sweat like a pig" kind of exercise is what burns calories, you know the kind of exercise that makes your cheeks pink? Do that.

You can reduce calories with a protein drink for breakfast and lunch then eating lean protein with fiber for dinner. Like green salad with some chicken/fish and balsamic vinegar for dressing. The spray on salad dressing that's one calorie per squirt comes in pretty good flavors.

Remember: calorie reduction isn't enough, you have to get moving. You next question might be: Who can recommend a tailor my take in all of my loose clothes?!? Go get 'em!

Cut the amount of food you eat

try to skip one meal a day - if you had lunch no need to dinner or the dinner can consists only fruits and vegetables.

do exercises - don't exhaust yourself a half an hour Swedish will do fine

try jogging for two days a week

try to use a bike or walk instead of cars or motorbike as possible as you can

I think this will do it and if continue on doing so you'll notice the differences

Just exercise and eat healthy. You're causing your body more harm by starving yourself then losing weight.

the water gum diet!

drink water all the time so you are always full, and chew sugerfree gum so your brain thinks you are eating.

it works but you can only do this for 5 days or so... then you have to eat like a piece of fruit or something and then start again.
