Be your own trainer and nutritionist, the basic rules to losing weight are no soda, no fast food, lots of chicken, fish, fresh (not canned that’s bad) fruits and vegies, whole wheat stuff, yogurt. Not so many cakes and donuts and cookies. Basic common sense for eating, you just need to enforce it. Get all the bad stuff out of the house right away, just toss it or give it away while your still motivated. No alcohol and no smoking  if that applies. Lots of water, 3-4 liters a day, not all at once, but spread it out. Its really easy to down a liter or two while your watching tv or on the computer. Also drink some after you eat the bigger meals of the day, it helps your body pick out the nutrients in food when your food is more spread apart.  Don’t think that sports drinks can replace water, the only time you need to drink them right after a workout, besides that just stick with water. These rules may be hard to adapt to at first so start with cutting out the things you know you can live without.  Then work from there.  Remember these are  perfect eating habits, it can take you a while to work into it.  If you know you can’t live without your one treat a day, don’t fight it by trying to eat something else, just eat it and make sure that’s the only one you cheat on a day.  Otherwise you’ll get depressed and quit.  Another important point is getting the right amount of sleep every night.  You need 8-9 hours of sleep each night for your body to function correctly.  This is an important factor of losing weight.  Set up a routine for yourself and go to bed at about the same time each night.  \nAs for exercise, lots of cardio. Find something you like. If you have never exercised much before, start with walking 30 minutes a day at a brisk pace. Move on to different terrains that include hills and increase the time spent. After a week or two, try jogging the route. No matter what find an activity you enjoy. Walking to jogging is just an example, try hiking, rollerblading, biking. Once you get into a regular routine, if your not happy with the level of difficulty, try signing up with a gym. Spinning, pilates or kickboxing classes are great. It will also introduce you to working with weights. Talk to a trainer for instruction before using any weights. A cheap investment is a balance ball, it works you stomach while your just sitting on it, like at your computer and its great for posture. There are hundreds of exercises you can use it for for your entire body. I can give you some ideas if you want, just email me. Also for more info on the benefits of water go to www.watercure.com Good Luck! Honestly if you need anything else don't hesitate to IM me, krista_girl86 even if you don't pick me as best answer, i'd be happy to help.  Also check out the website for the tv show The Biggest Loser on NBC.  There are many, many helpful facts on there.

first try doing you cardio on an empty stomach in the morning when you glycegen (spelling?) levels are at their lowest and you do not have any food/calories in your system. You will burn fat more effectively this way. Also, try doing High Intensity Interval Training. On the eliptical machine, do the hill workout. It progressively gets higher and it alternates when the most effort is needed. It will give you a minute of max effort and then a minute to rest. Also, try doing your treadmill on an incline. If you walk on the treadmill, walking on an incline gives you a 30-40% harder workout without walking faster or without pounding your body. Drink at least 1 gallon of water a day and try to stop eating at least 3-4 hours before bedtime. Good luck.

A simple guide? Okay, here are the basics, but you probably already know them:\n\n1. You MUST burn more caloies than you consume daily. \n\n2. Drink only water. Soda dehydrates you.\n\n3. Find a physical activity you enjoy & do it at least 4 days per weak for 45 minutes or more at a time. You must get your heart rate up and work up a sweat. (Martial arts class does it for me!)\n\n4. If you exercise before you eat breakfast in the morning, you will lose weight a little faster.\n\n5. Muscle burns more calories than fat, so lifting weights will help.\n\n6. Walk as much as you can in addition to your exercise.....park farther away from the door, take the stairs instead of the elevator, walk to the store if you live close enough, ect.....\n\n7. Stay away from all things fried, sugary, or carbonated.  Eat as many vegetables as you wish.

There are several ways you can go, one is to commit to taking a good walk every day, this will tone and shed extra fat pretty fast, if you do it every day, giving yourself one day a week to rest.  Your walks must be brisk and 25-30 minutes.  Remember that each pound is 3500 calories, so this has to be burned off, and walking will do it just fine.\n   The other option is to go online and get some kind of a dvd or tape for exercising at home.  Everything is available now!  You can get tae bo, kickboxing, aerobics, literally anything that seems fun to you, is available and quick too.  Either one of these things will work, 20 lbs. is alot to lose in this amount of time, if you work at it, it can be done. Drink alot of water too.

Walking and drinking lots of water are probably the best and easiest ways. And try your best not to eat after 6pm. If you go to bed with calories on you then you have no way to work it off and it turns to fat.

increase your self esteem... or\ndehydrate yourself and go to the bathroom a lot.\n\nyou said easiest.\n\nThe best way to lose weight is simply to elevate your heart rate at least 30 minutes a day. You dont even have to exercise for a long time. You dont have to job, jump, or do stairs. Just do anything that raises your heart rate pretty high for a few minutes, and your heart will continue to pump fast and burn calories. Instead of eating a few big meals a day, eat many small meals.\nMake realistic goals like 5 pounds a month and stick to a routine. Have confidence in yourself and dont obsess by looking in the mirror everyday. It will happen, just have patience :)\nI made a site to check BMI and calories burned per day. It's not all that great but I spent a lot of time adding quality links to the further links section.\nhttp://www.jimmyr.com/lose_weight.php

Eat less junk food and exercise more. If you only want to lost 5 pounds if you just walkt for like 20 extra minutes a day that should do it. Also, I like to have instant breakfast for breakfast, it fills me up and is fairly healthy.

lol. thats easy. buy a treadmill and walk/jog 2 to 4 miles  every weekend. or you can walk/jog 2 to 4 miles every weekend outside. outside will be harder so i suggest running on a treadmill for a month or so just to get the feel for it. eating is equally important if not most. try to eat things with lots of protein. Protein is essential for weight loss. be sure not to eat really fatty foods like McD or anything. Protein will fill you up so you arent as hungry during the day. But be sure not to starve yourself either!!!
