find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter your stats, take 300-400 calories off that number and that's how much you need to lose weight.
5-8servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water a day
5-6 small meals instead of 3 big ones (breakfast is the most important - make sure to get complex carbs like whole wheat bread, oatmeal, fruit etc)
4-6 times a week cardio for 30-50min, light weight training, many reps
no junk food, no sodas, no alcohol, no white flour (cakes, cookies, white bread, pasta etc.), nothing high in sugar (ice cream)

yea its called eat healthy, drink lots of water and excersice regularly! trust me ive done yo-yo dieting for the last 5 years, done the diet pills and everything. I've finally realized and have proven to myself that by just sticking with the old fashion way you are bound to lose weight! i just wish everyone would get that through their heads once and for all already!!! Geeeezzz

Try eating lots of vegetables and drink water. This is good for short term dieting only.

I like the G.I. (glycemic index) diet.
Simple sugars (candy) breaks down quickly in your system, triggering insulin (your body's sugar level regulator). Insulin takes the sugar and stores it (fat). SO. Complex carbs break down slower, don't spike your sugar, you don't produce so much insulin, and you don't store so much fat!
Plus it's not as restrictive as Atkins, or some of the stranger one-food-only diets.
Other than that: portion control, self control, and water.
