I need to lose at least 50 pounds fairly quickly. I do a bit of strength training with free weights already, and I don't eat a lot of food. I don't want to kill myself, but I do need to lose the weight fast. Anyone have any good suggestions?

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:)

Eat 4-6 small (healthy) meals each day. Be sure to keep an eye on your calorie intake. Don't forget about including fruits and veggies daily! Cut out fast foods, junk foods, candies, sodas and other sweets.
Drink up on the water! It really does help with the weight loss process.
Of course, get active! You already strength train--anything else? Walking each day also helps...
Remember that a healthy weight loss is 1-2 pounds per week. Keep a positive attitude and don't give up!!☺

Also have component manage. (sure I realize the energy factor sounds bizarre however you have got to do this to shed some pounds the healthful method.) Get lots of undertaking day-to-day. Jumprope.

drink lots of water. aerobics will tone your body and cardio and running or even walking for a good amount of time is great. don't completely resrict your eating because that will cause you to have massive cravings for everything you've been depriving yourself of. For me I eat a 90 cal special K bar for breakfast and celery and an apple for lunch and then the healthy part of what my mom makes for dinner. whatever works for you that is healthy and wont cause you to crave and gain would be good. make sure to do ab workouts also those are great.
