There is no quick fix. If there was, we'd all be supermodels. Regular exercize and a proper diet. Eat 5-6 small meals a day but minimize fat. If your doing everything right, you can healthfully lose up to 2 pounds a week.

I don't know if you can lose that much weight in that short of time, but I really don't think its healthy if you do.  I would expect 60-90 lbs.  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, but start with these steps, once you get your endurance up you can do more with speed.

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.

The fastest diet is fruits, veggies, and lean meats.  Cut down on pasta, bread and sugar, and you will lose weight and keep it off.  Drink lots of water too.

The easiest most healthiest way to lose weight fast is to go on a fruit and vegetable, salad, and soup diet. Most of these foods are considered negative calories, calories that get burned up in your digestive system. \n\nAlong with this, excercise!

It really depends on what you mean by "fast" because the only way to lose weight really fast is to simply not eat, which is extremely not recommended and unhealthy. Instead, you must change your lifestyle and diet. First, start eating MORE. YES MORE!! More times a day that is. Instead of having 3 large meals, break it up into 4-5 smaller meals a day. Also, if you work keep a pack of almonds at your desk and munch onthose every now and then if hunger kicks in. Also, what you eat is extremely important as well. Try to eat alot of whole grain foods, veggies, lean meats and try to avoid fried foods in bad oils like vegatable and corn oil. Lastly, start to exercise! Start off slow, if you're a newbie, do a 30 minute walk, 15 min jog, maybe do some weights. Once you adapt to this new lifestyle, you'll be more than on your way to lose weight, look good, and most of all, FEEL GOOD!!

A good meal plan to follow and lose weight quickly is the following:\n\n1) Drink 8 glasses of water/ day. Preferably 2 glasses before meals and the rest in between...or whatever works for you.\n\n2) Eat daily three portions of protein. I myself prefer to eat vegetarian protein rather than animal based protein. \n\nFor breakfast eat:\n2 eggs or 1 cup cottage cheese\n2 slices of whole wheat toast\n1 fruit\n2 glasses of water\nsome kind of fat--if you are not allergic to nuts, eat 8 almonds.\n\nSnack\nYou can eat a fruit or a cup of low fat yogurt\n\nLunch\nEat a salad with 1 cup of cucumbers, 1 cup of lettuce, 1 cup tomatoes or whatever vegetable all 1 cup, except for carrots--only 1/4 cup.\n4 slices of vegetarian bologna or a chicken breast\n2 slices of whole wheat bread\nno juice--you may drink iced tea with lemon.\n\n2nd Snack\nanother fruit\n(when snacking stay away from chips, chocolates--if you feel the need to eat something chocolaty, eat a cup of chocolate pudding (Huntz or Jello) if you want chips buy Quaker products, like rice cakes or rice tortilla chips. They are low fat, but very tasty!!!)\n\nDinner\nIncorporate whatever you like, but remember that your plate must be divided into 30% protein, 30% fat and 40%carbohydrates. A typical dinner would be 1 chicken breast, salad and 1/4 cup brown rice.\nIced tea.\n\nSnack 3\n1 cup of popcorn or a glass of milk.\n\nFollow this plan for a week and you'll see the difference =)\nBest regards.

For losing such a large number of pounds there is no asap. This requires a lot of patience (sorry) and change of lifestyle in general. \n\nAlso - you would be more successful if you make your initial target more realistic, like losing 20 pounds, holding them for a few months and then again 20 and so on. \n\nIn general it is really - it less, about 1000- 1200 kcal per day and exercise in a healthy way (increase it slowly if your body is not used to it). \n\nIf you can afford it he best is to do the weight loss under supervision of a doctor or better in a clinic where they also teach you different nutrition. the important thing is that you have to change your whole way to eat and move and all habits associated with that. There is a lot of mental work involved in this change. Like getting used to smaller portions, less "bad" fat and using "good " fats instead. In general eating less and much more veggies and fruit than you did in the past. \n\nOver time you will see the effect and also lose your cravings and your body will adjust to it's new weight. \n\nIf you still think you want to do this asap and this is possible then be careful with how you do this. You need to exercise but start it slowly, you need to eat less but make sure you get all nutrients a body needs. Go at least to weight watcher meetings.

That's way too much weight to lose in such a short time. Give yourself 12-14 weeks (minimum). Eat a healthy diet and exercise. The problem with trying to lose too much weight too fast is that you will end up losing lean body mass (muscle). Your muscle tissue is what keeps your metabolism up, so by going on a crash diet and losing it, you end up making yourself fatter in the long run. Stay healthy!

im not sure how "quickly" you mean. but if you are a male, eating about 1750 calories each day and adding exercise is a great way to lose lbs.\n\nfor breakfast eat things like eggs with yogurt and fruit or oatmeal, lunch can be a tuna sandwhich or ham and cheese on wheat bread..or a salad with chicke on top... dinner can be steak chicken or fish with a couple of veggies and a potato..and snacks can be nuts, energy bars, fruit, beef jerky, etc.\n\nIf you dont exercise at all...begin with 45 minutes of light cardio like walking or biking.  then bump it up to jogging and walking. \n\nmost people can easily lose 2 lbs a week on a normal diet but i have seen people lose 5 a week on this type of diet.  The most important parts are eating HEALTHY food (you can have as much fruit and veggies as you can eat!) and trying to exercise atleast 4 days a week.\n\ngoodluck!

That's gonna be. . .tough. But if you want to lose weight quickly, you might think about trying this book called "The Movie Star Diet" by Steve Simmons. It helped me lose thirty pounds in 2 1/2 months when I didn't think anything would work. My goal to begin with was only 20 lbs! It has a really easy plan to follow and an excellent workout as well.

losing weight fast is dangerous to your health.\nif you want to lose weight, and keep it off-aim for 2 pounds a week- eat veggies and fruit, a little protein, some carbs and \nExercise...there are no instant fixes\nChange your lifestyle

There is no quick fix.  Any weight loss over about a pound per week is dangerous.  Plus, with a quick fix, you go back to the way you were before very easily.  You have to start changing your whole life.\n\nEat healthier\nTake a multivitamin\nGet an exercise partner and routine\nDo the little things (take the stairs rather than elevator, etc..)\nGet plenty of water every day\n\nThis should get you started.  Jogging will target your thighs.  Scorpions target your butt.  Get on all fours and slowly curl one leg up like a scorpion tail.
