I wish to drop some weight relatively quickly (around 20kg in about a month) I'm looking for an eating and fitness plan that will help with this goal. Can someone point me to a website where I can get a free plan or give me a plan that will help me with this goal. Most places want to charge me upwards of $1000 to help me, so I thought I would ask everyones advice.

I realise 20kg in a month is fast, I have I don't want to do that every month as I know thats an unrealistic goal and is not healthy. I believe that amount is what I could lose with strict diet and exercise in the first month. After that though something like 1kg a week would be my goal!

Hi, I was almost the same weight as you last year, took up a program my friend recommended and am lost about 30kg. You can read about my profile if you would like to find out more.
DO NOT go to places that charge you so much to lose weight, trust me, there are better deals than that. I have tried many and many just put you on a diet routine and let you go to the gym "for free" , then when we don't lose the weight we are suppose to lose, they tell us it's our fault and we CAN'T prove it that it's not ours!
Just angers me when they charge that amount. Just two simple choices, go for surgery to suck out the fats (still cost alot) or get a program that works *And follow it with your heart.
All the best.

um. you do realise that that's fairly fast weight lost. I mean at that rate you'll be vapour in like 6 months. It's unhealthy. I would set a target rather than a rate. and look to set your weight loss over several months. now if you're looking for short term gain for short term purposes, like say a wedding. I would suggest cutting out all carbs in all forms for a while. not atkins or south beachy offical type of approach. those take a while to activate the burn. but you'd be surprised how much of the average persons caloric intake is carbs. not only that eating carbs makes you need more carbs.
there's also a diet for heart patients call St. John's hospital diet. it will drop 10 lbs in a week. but you won't keep it off. it's chemically balanced and very very strict. look it up.

Here is what to do: 1. at breakfast eat most of your daily carbs (the rule is more carbs in the morning less in the evening) 2. at dinner eat mostly protein, and not over 250 calories (move 50-150 calories from dinner to your 3PM snack) 3. you run for too long, after 45 minutes of exercise your body goes into catabolic state and you lose some muscles. The more muscles you keep, the more calories you will burn during the day, so don't exercise that long. It's better to split your workout in half, do some in the morning then the rest in the evening. 4. eat within 1 hour after you exercise. You not eating after exercise, that's not good because after exercise is the most important time to eat, or you will not recover properly and lose muscles and slow down your metabolism. 5. instead running 6 miles, run shorter distance but faster, intense interval training will speed up your metabolism and will give your body some serious fat burning boost. Do this: 3 minutes slow warm up, then for 1 minute run as fast as you can, then 1 minutes slow, repeat for 15 minutes, end with 3 minutes slow cool down. Total running time 21 minutes. It will burn more calories and fat then slow long running, especially now that your body got used to the slow long distance runs.

find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter all your stats and it will tell you how many calories you need a day to maintain, take off 300-400cal off that number and thats how much you need to lose.
eat 5-6 small meals a day (eat every 2-3 hours)
5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water
have complex carbs for breakfast - they give you energy
have lean meat (protein) for dinner - repairs muscle
cardio exercise 4-6 times a week for 30-50min, light weight training
dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, past etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, icecream, candy etc) and nothing fried, oily.
ofcourse you can spoil yourself once in a while with a little treat:)
