Even if you do lose weight, as soon as you stop the diet you will put the weight on, and then some more.\n\nFrom your name, it appears that you are getting married soon. Congratulations! You don't want to be on a diet while you're on your honeymoon and you definately don't want to balloon out straight after you get married, so this is my suggestion... Lose weight properly and it will stay off. Eat a healthy balanced diet that is low in calories and exercise frequently. You need to make sure that you are working off all the calories you are eating and then some more every day. This is weight loss that will last. You will only lose between 0.5 and 1kg per week but it will stay off and you will feel great because all the exercise will boost your endorphin level and give you more energy (which you'll need on your honeymoon!!)

I did Jenny Craig and it really worked for me.  I lost about....45 lbs.  I thought the food was really good, and besides, if you find something you don't like, you don't have to buy it again.  It's expensive, but it works.  I was doing aerobics and walking while I was doing Jenny, I worked the system, and it worked me all the way down to a size 8.  Good luck and go for it!

This is a GUARANTEED proven method of loosing 10 to 15lbs in only 2 weeks. GUARANTEED!!\n\nI have found that the fastest proven method for loosing 15 pounds without using any supplements is by doing the following:\n\n1. Eat 5 to 6 small meals per day ( every 2 to 3 hours)\n2. Eliminate all sugar, sodium and flour from your diet\n3. Eat at least one portion of protein and complex carbs per meal.\n4. Perform moderate exercise for at least 60 minutes every day (walking at a brisk pace), plus 20 minutes of resistance exercises at least every other day.\n5. Drink at least one gallon of water per day\n\nHow can I guarantee this you ask?\nBy virtue of elimating sodium alone you will loose at least 6 to 7 pounds. With the elimination of simple carbs and sugar you will loose an additional 5 pounds. Then, the addition of cardio and resistance exercises will bring you to at least 10lbs GUARANTEED!!!

losing weight is not very easy, especially for starters. but giving a little effort would assure you of a really safe and effective weight loss. a low-carb, low fat, high-fiber diet is the best diet. this is a sample menu, about 1200 calories the whole day. you will not spend a lot, and you will not feel hunger.\n\nbreakfast:\n1 pc toast / sliced bread\n1 pc banana or apple\n1 glass of milk\ntea or coffee with low cal sweetener (or sugar)\n\n10 am snack:\n1 banana or apple OR\n10 pcs of berries OR\n1 cup popcorn\n1 glass lemonade or juice\n\nlunch:\nopen sandwich (no bread on top) containing:\n1 slice of smoked ham (about 60 grams)\ntomatoes, lettuce, onion\n1 glass juice/lemonade/tea\n\n4pm snack:\n3 pcs of oreo cookies OR\n1 palmful peanuts OR\nany medium sized fruit\n\ndinner:\n1 100-gram cut of lean meat (if chicken, no skin)\n1 1/2 golfball size serving mashed potato or pasta\nup to 2 cups of green veggies or steamed carrots and peas\ndessert: any medium fruit OR\n1 golfball size of low fat ice cream or sorbet\n1 cup of coffee or tea\n\nyou can do variations of this sample plan. very low cost (not totally no cost of course), and low maintenance. you will not feel any hunger at any time of the day. the best thing is, these foods are definitely available in your own house, probably also the things you eat daily. and you will not deprive yourself so binging and mood swings will be avoided.\n\nthrow in some exercise while you're at it: jogging, weightlifting for muscle development, pilates for flexibility (there are websites that show some basic pilates moves), powerwalking for stamina building. even regular day to day activities help - walking to the bus station, bicycling to the supermarket, mopping the floor, you can even do some jogging in-place while watching TV. remember that a well balanced diet and regular exercise is still the best. not only will you be kept trim, you will also stay healthy.\n\nremember that there are no quick-fix diets and exercises. starving yourself and pushing yourself to extreme exhaustion would only lead to even more dangers, and a higher medical cost. the best way to achieve your goal and to get a healthier body is to incorporate a well balanced diet and enough exercise in your daily life.

I recommend the South Beach Diet. It was designed by a cardiologist, and is good at teaching you about good carbs/bad carbs and good fats/bad fats. It's very effective (you lose 10-12 pounds the first two weeks), but it's not unhealthy like the Atkins diet. \n\nI use South Beach regulary, and have lost weight and kept it off. I also eat much more healthily now.

1. Burn more calories than you eat.  3500 calories = 1 pound.\n\n2. Combine calorie reduction with aerobic exercise.\n\n3. Low carb diets were shown to be dangerous when they were a fad back in the 1960s.\n\n4. It is dangerous to eat fewer than 1200 calories a day.\n\n5. It is dangerous to lose more than about 2 pounds a week.\n\n6. Make sure you get a balance diet.

I decreased mine from over 600 to about 150. Here's how: diet, exercise, supplementation. In order now:\n1) Diet. I didn't do no carb, but I did cut out all bad carbs. Eat only low glycemic index carbs. Get adequate protein. 2) Excercise. I went from being sedentary to running a full 26.2 mile marathon. While helpful, I'm sure that you can do just fine by walking briskly 5 days a week, 45 minutes to an hour a day. 3) Supplementation. Lot's of quackery to avoid here. I basically only looked at peer reviewed medical journals (JAMA, Lancet, NEJM, etc). Here's what I take, your mileage may vary: one good mult-vitatmin/multi-mineral. In addition, 3 fish oil capsules, 2 garlic pills, 1000mg non flush Niacin, 1600mcg Folic Acid, 1 buffered aspirin, 2 flax oil pills. I think that's it. If you buy your stuff at Wal-Mart, it's pretty cheap. There may be doubters, but the proof is in the pudding, so to speak. It's hard to argue with the results. Good luck.

Every year Americans invest billions of dollars in weight loss diets and gimmicks, many of which yield few results. However, the lure of quick, easy weight loss is hard to resist. Despite ineffective tools, most hopeful consumers are willing to give the next weight loss fad a chance. If you're planning to start a new diet, it is important to remember the following information.\nFood-specific diets: Have you ever tried the cabbage diet or the fruit-only diet? These are just a couple of examples of diets that promote one "specific" food that causes weight loss. No matter how much you think you'll enjoy ice cream at every meal, inevitably you will get bored with eating the same food repeatedly. As a result, you'll eat less food than needed to maintain your weight. This type of diet will not teach you healthier eating habits or provide a balance of nutrients, and consequently is not effective for long-term weight loss.\n\nHigh-protein, low-carbohydrate diets: One of the most recent trends in dieting, these diets are based on the concept that carbohydrates are "bad" and that everyone has some degree of insulin resistance, resulting in poor carbohydrate metabolism. Many proponents of these diets suggest that including carbohydrates in your diet will cause weight gain. The reality, though, is that eating more calories (whether as carbohydrate, fats, or protein) than you burn will cause weight gain.\n\nHigh-fiber, low-calorie diets: As I've noted in many previous blog entries, fiber-rich foods play an important role in a healthy diet. They are a helpful ingredient of weight loss efforts because they provide bulk to the diet, which helps you feel fuller sooner. Be careful, though: if you plan to increase the fiber in your diet, be sure to increase your fluid intake at the same time or you may experience cramping, bloating, and constipation. High-fiber diets will help with weight loss only if you restrict calories in conjunction with addition of extra grains, fruits and vegetables.\n\nLiquid diets: Consumers face a couple of different liquid diet options. Your local grocery store and pharmacy sell over-the-counter liquid meal replacements, which can be expensive and frequently add extra calories to daily consumption if not managed carefully. On the other hand are liquid diets that require medical supervision. These diets are usually very low in calories and may result in metabolic abnormalities if dieters are not carefully monitored. Neither type of liquid diet should be used for long‑term weight loss unless monitored by a health care professional. Radically changing your caloric intake in this way will not result in long-term behavior modification and healthy eating patterns.\n\nFasting: As a way to cleanse the body or jump-start a weight-loss program, fasting has been recommended for years. However, all that fasting really does is deprive your body of nutrients and decrease your energy, leaving you feeling weak and lightheaded. If the right nutrients are not available for your cells to use as energy, your liver will convert fat stores to ketones for use as energy (ketosis). Long-term ketosis can be harmful to your health. \nNo fad diet or gimmick will work magic for safe and effective weight loss. The following are some suggestions for ensuring a long-term healthy eating plan and getting your weight loss efforts off to an encouraging start: \nEat a variety of foods. Remember, a balanced diet will ensure that you get all necessary nutrients. \n\nGet some physical activity every day. Calories in must be less than calories out to ensure successful weight loss. To keep "calories out" at a healthful level, make you get at least 30 minutes of physical activity every day.\n\nInclude sources of fiber in your diet. They will add bulk and give you a feeling of fullness.\n\nChoose a diet low in fats, saturated fats, and cholesterol. You do need to consume some fat for good health. Aim for no more t

There is a new supplement called hoodia.  This is supposed to work as an apetite suppressant.  Many people say that it works.\n\nI once lost 35 lbs in eight weeks on atkins diet.\n\nThe most healthy way to lose such large amount of weight in little time as you want to lose seems to be raw 100 percent vegan diet.  I am not selling anything, btw.  Read before and after testimonials and see pictures here:\nhttp://rawfoodinfo.com/pictures/beforeafters_main.html\n\nThere is another way to lose alot of weight quickly, but I do not advocate divorce.  \n\nGood luck to you, dearie.

for that fast of a loss I would recommend the atkins diet along with some excercise. The atkins diet consists of eating protein only. Meat, no carbohydrates. For losing a signifigant amount of weight fast, you can't beat it.

Moderate, long-term, low-carb dieting works well.  The cases you here about people only losing muscle mass and water are short-term, zero-carb dieters who don't know what they're doing.\n\nI started a moderate, low-carb diet (20 net carbs/meal maximum and 6 meals or snacks/day) and lost 30 pounds in the first year, 10 in the second.  I never went hungry, and I ate as much as I wanted all the time.  It changed my life.  I still keep it up today.\n\nI'm 6'0" and started at 225 and maintained my weight at 185, dipping to a low of 183.  I rarely exercised during that time, as I do not have the time for it.\n\nLow-carb dieting works!  Those who say it doesn't are very naive or have an agenda.\n\nOh, and it is a serious mistake if you look at low-carb dieting as a short-term, problem-solver like low-fat diets.  It MUST be a permanent, life-changing diet.  You must go into it with the idea, "From this point on, I will rarely eat any meal with more than 25 net carbs."  That will not only lose weight for you, it will allow you to maintain the weight loss.\n\nIf you stop the diet, you will gain weight, just like low-fat diets.\n\nOh, and one more thing, a moderate, low-carb diet does allow the occasional high-carb, high-sugar, high-calorie snack.  The best success stories I've seen were eating 1-2 high-carb foods per week, even things like chocolate cake.  But it must be rare.

Never heard of this one ,,, interesting ,,, I lost 24 pounds and 2 3/4" in my waist in 30 days. I still have 27 more pounds to go which will be gone before Christmas. I did this on a no diet weight loss plan that is natural and healthy and only requires about 10-15 minutes of your time daily. You do not skip meals or have to eat or buy special foods and I even lost this without exercise. As far as a fat flush plan ... Hmmmmm

In general, a no carb diet is unhealthy and in extreme cases, can be unsafe.\n\nSafe and effective weight-loss programs should include:\n\n* Healthy eating plans that reduce calories but do not rule out specific foods or food groups\n* Regular physical activity and/or exercise instruction\n* Tips on healthy behavior changes that also consider your cultural needs\n* Slow and steady weight loss of about ¾ to 2 pounds per week and not more than 3 pounds per week (weight loss may be faster at the start of a program)\n* Medical care if you are planning to lose weight by following a special formula diet, such as a very-low-calorie diet\n* A plan to keep the weight off after you have lost it

It's not gonna be easy but it's not  impossible. If you follow the diet below, but truly follow it.. they say you can loose up to 10 pounds. I do it once a week (it's only 3 days) and I've lost so far 15 pounds ... but i've done it 3 times ... i've lost an average of 5 pounds every time i've done it (Better than nothing) During the days you're not in the diet just try to eat as healthy as you can. Also try to add some exercise, I walk 20-30 minutes 5 times a week.\n\nGood Luck!!\n\n*******************************************************************\n\nDay 1  \n\n*BREAKFAST  Black Coffee or Tea, 1/2 Grapefruit or Juice, 1 Toast with  1 Tbsp.
