The first things you want to eliminate from what you eat are: sugar, fried foods, and white flour. You want to eat as natural and unprocessed food as possible.
Sugar, anything with it is bad. From Coco-Crispies cereal, nearly all sodas, to a small bag a M&M's. All turn into body fat fairly quickly.
Fried foods. Chips, french fries, etc. All have very high levels of calories and fats. Cut out mayonaisse and butter while you're at it.
White flour. White breads, spahgetti, Ramen noodles, most cereals, tortillas (corn & flour).
You're going to want to eat 5-7 small meals/snacks in a day. That may seem like a lot of eating, but look at it this way. Say your lost in the woods and you need to make a fire that will last all night. Will the fire last longer throwing all the wood you've collected into the fire once or twice during the night, or if you toss a couple of logs in once every 45 minutes-hour?
Your body is pretty similar. You need to feed it a little bit every 2-3 hours to keep it burning fat. The longer you go in between meals, the more likely your body is going to store what you eat as fat. This is because your body doesn't realize that there is food everywhere in the world we live in. It still thinks your a cave-man. And cave-men didn't get to eat very often. Sometimes once every 3-5 days...starving. So our body is designed to store what we eat as fat, because fat has the most energy (calories) per pound. So, if you sleep all night, then skip breakfast and don't eat until lunch at say 11:30am...you probably haven't ate anything in 12+ hours. So, your body thinks your starving, that there is no food to eat. Then you eat a nice, greasy, calorie-loaded slice of pizza. Your body will then store most of it as fat because it thinks there is a food shortage.
Aim for 200-225 calories at each meal/snack.
Also try to eat 20-30 grams of protein at each meal. And of course, your going to want to keep even healthy carbs to a minimum (less than 80 grams a day, 10-20 per meal).
The healthiest carbs are:
Yams
Oatmeal (no sugar)
Sweet Potatoes
Brown Rice
OK carbs are:
Whole-grain bread/buns/tortillas (whole-grain should be the first thing on the ingredients list)
Fruits (If you can, cut them out. If you can't, eat them in the morning).
Aside from the carbs listed above, your meals should consist of:
Chicken breast
Turkey breast
Tuna
Salmon
Egg whites
Almonds
Low-fat cheese (cottage, string cheese)
Lots of vegtables
Lots of water
You need to drink 1 gallon (128oz)minimum per day. Water is what carries the toxins and fat you burn off out of your body through your urine. It also helps keep you feeling full and does wonders for your skin. If your urine isn't clear like water, drink more.
Also, take a multi-vitamin (like Centrum).
Bodybuilders and fitness models basically eat this way. Not only is it low calorie, low carb, high in protein and natural...it controls your blood/sugar levels and how your body uses the food based on the glycemic index.
You should also join a gym if you aren't a member already. A lot of gyms give you a free personal training session when you sign up. Of course they'll try to get you to sign up for more, but you really don't need it (unless you wanna be a bodybuilder).
I would start you with 45 minutes on the elliptical machine Mon, Wed, and Friday.
Tues and Thurs I would have you do 30-45 minutes of circuit training. Work your "core" these workouts. Your core is your abs and lower back. This will give you great posture and you'll look thinner and taller just because of it.

Forget eating regimen I devour like a horse and I best weigh 9 stone. This is what works for me: Eat in general, if viable each 3 hours, whilst your frame realises that it is getting a constant deliver of meals it raises it is metabolism, burning energy faster and is far much less more likely to retailer energy as fats. When consuming attempt to devour plenty of top protein meals and do not move too difficult at the carbs. Try move effortless on trans and saturated fat even though you're allowed the ordinary deal with. Drink plenty of water! At least one gallon in line with day. Tea, espresso and fizzy beverages are O.K however they don' depend in the direction of your total water consumption. As for undertaking I do a little gentle weight coaching 4 days every week and cardiovascular (I use a rowing desktop) 2 days every week with one days relaxation. There is a natural notion that doing cardiovascular undertaking on an empty belly is helping burn energy. This is absolute garbage don't do it. Weight coaching is a well proposal as muscle tissues burns plenty of power, even even as you sleep. You do not need to come to be Mr/Mrs universe however any fats tissue which you'll be able to convert to muscle tissues won't best make you seem bigger however broaden your metabolism. Getting lots of sleep could also be primary whilst seeking to construct muscle. Good Luck

you cant. you have to change your eating habits and start exercising
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:)

well I'm not used to the metric system of weight and stuff, but trying eating a bit waiting 20 minutes and then seeing if you really want anymore of your food. I heard of a person who lost 10 lbs. in 6 weeks with no restrictions and no exercise that way.
