I'm going to visit my hometown and want to lose 15 pounds to look great. I'm at a healthy weight now but I want to look even better. I have 2 months and one week for a time frame to lose the extra pounds. I was just wondering if slim fast works and looking for some other methods to try. Any ideas?

Nope. Another eating disorder. "I'm at a healthy weight now"...but I want to look ghastly and ill when I go back home for my visit.....
Good grief.
Even if you needed to lose weight, that's not how you do it. You'd be starving yourself on that diet. You have to eat 1,200-1,500 calories a day to lose weight.

find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter your stats and it will tell you how many calories a day you need to maintain your weight. take 300-400calories off that number and that's how much you need to lose weight.
eat 5-6 small meals a day instead of 3 big ones.
5-8 servings of fruit and vegetables a day.
8 glasses of water a day.
4-6 times a week cardio work out for 30-50min plus light weight training.
no junk food, no sodas, no white flour (white bread, pasta, cookies, cakes etc)

if youre at a healthy weight you shouldnt loose more weight to try and 'look better'. instead exercise more, and get fitter, this will tone your body more and will make you look fabulous.
try, cycling, walking (not jogging), swimming
30min-1hour 3 times a week.
p.s. that diet is very unhealthy. youd miss a lot of fibres and protein

Use a vegetable bean dip for instance hummus instead of ranch dressing or possibly a fatty cream-based dip.

Don't confuse thirst with hunger. Drink a glass of water when you feel hungry to see in the event that's what you're really craving.

Yes, and if you exercise about 30 minutes a day, you'll lose even more.

Decaf coffee is a wonderful low-calorie fluid when you're having cravings (and a terrific source of antioxidants).
