The fastest way to lose weight is to chop off a limb. If you're not up for that, then you probably want to diet and exercise.
The healthiest, and therefore best, way to lose weight is to reduce your caloric intake to 1600-2000 calories per day (depending on your ideal weight), and also exercise three or four times a week for at least 45 minutes each session. Cardiovascular exercise such as jogging or swimming is ideal.
Going on a starvation diet is not healthy, nor will it help you keep the weight off after the diet (many studies will attest to this fact). The way to keep weight off is to permanently change your bad habits by practicing good habits. Practicing unhealthy habits like starvation will not help you in the long run.

While there are ways to lose weight fast, most are not healthy. It takes time to put weight on and so it takes time to take it off. If you want to increase your motivation or success, I suggest you try Weight Watchers or the new product Alli, which is FDA approved. The other thing to consider is how much weight you need to lose. Sometimes just by including exercising or cutting out sodas or candy you can drop 5-10 pounds, depending on your size.

You can't lose weight really fast or it'll throw off your system. Just gradually lose it.
Cut out all sugar. Don't drink pop. No fast food at all! Keep your servings of carbs/grain down to 1-2 a day. Eat vegetables and fruits. Eat lean meats. Go easy on fruits with high sugar (grapes and bananas). Get at least 1/2 hour of vigorous exercise a day.

Really fast weight loss is usually temporary. Slow and steady is a much smarter approach. A healthy diet and regular exercise is still the best way. Do this and you can expect about 2 pounds per week (maybe a little more in the beginning).

It depends. If you have a fast metabolism, just don't eat anything after 6pm. If you're metabolism is slow go on a fast. Water fasting is the quickest way to lose weight. You'll start feeling it after 3 days.

Eat less, exercise more. Eliminate fatty and sugary foods. A good diet to follow is that recommended for diabetics. It is healthy, fun, encompasses a wide range of food but is sensible. The quick and dirty answer, though, is eat less, exercise more.
