A normal weight is different for everyone. You can calculate your BMI (body mass index) however this may not be accurate because it does not take your body composition into consideration.Decrease your intake and increase your exercise! By creating a 500 calorie deficit per day (whether it be by decreasing your intake, increasing your exercise, or a combination of both), you will lose a pound a week -- and keep it off. Never consume less than 1200 calories a day. This will only hurt you in the long run as it messes up your metabolism. Loosing weight gradually at a rate of a pound per week is more effective and better for you than loosing weight at a fast pace.Tips:1. Replace soda and juice with water. Liquid calories can really add up.2. Eat slowly to allow your body to send a satiety signal to the brain.3. Eat lots of fiber as it keeps you full for longer! Apples (with skin) and oatmeal are excellent sources of fiber.4. Eat five to six small meals a day to keep your metabolism going.5. Always eat breakfast. It kick starts your metabolism!Good luck!

Following is a simple weight-loss program. Funny thing is that it works. It focuses on metabolism, and even detoxification. It does not give what you should eat as long as what you eat is within its 20 points. Try it!http://www.indiacurry.com/weightloss/30d��30-day Weight-loss ProgramThis 30-day weight-loss plan is designed to learn basic rules of dieting, still producing remarkable resultsThis is not a long term weight-loss program. This program can be followed by vegetarians as well as non-vegetarians. You should eat what you normally eat as long as it meets the 20 point criteria. After 30 days, you should slowly switch over to regular weight loss program. All the 20 points are important, still they are listed in a prioritized list of importance. Weigh your-self at the start of the program, and then every week. You may be surprised with results. I have provided explanations only when necessary.1. Drink one cup (oz) of plain water as soon as you get up.2. Eat breakfast within 45 minutes after waking up. This helps you kick start metabolism. This should be a big breakfast, not just one fruit or coffee and toast. I prefer 2 whole-eggs, 2 slices of whole-grain bread toasted, ? grapefruit or one orange, Green tea with honey.3. Do not eat after 6 pm. You use minimum number of calories while asleep. Un-used calories turn into fat while you sleep. 4. Walk one hour non-stop every day. The speed and pace don t matter. 5. Drink one Tablespoon of Apple-cider vinegar or Balsamic vinegar before eating Lunch or Dinner 6. Drink a minimum of 8 cups of fluids every day. 4 cups must be in fresh clean water 7. Eat 2 fresh fruits per day. The best fruit for weight-loss is Grapefruits. However, you might not be allowed to eat grapefruit due to interaction with prescription medication. In that case eat one apple and one orange per day8. Eat salad with lunch and with dinner 9. Do not eat any ground beef (hamburger, meatloaf), ground pork (sausage), ground lamb, ground mutton, ground chicken, ground turkey. Do not eat processed lunch meats Ham, Bologna, Chicken Turkey. Muscle fat and skins are used for ground and ground-processed (lunch meats) increasing fat content.Eat skinless chicken or turkey. Eat trimmed beef (Stew meat, or steaks), trimmed pork or ham. Only eat meats and poultry where you can see the muscle and its not ground up. 10. Do not use table sugar or some artificial sweeteners. Use Splenda or Honey 11. Do not eat products made of white flour: Cakes, Breads, Biscuit, Cookies, Muffins, Brownies. Eat whole grain bread 12. Do not eat white rice. Eat brown rice 13. Eat cooked dried beans (chickpeas, black beans, red kidney beans, lentils...) 14. Limit dairy products to one serving of fat-free plain yogurt with live culture and one serving of skim milk. No Cheese, No Cream. 15. Do not eat nuts, or dried fruits 16. Do not drink diet soda 17. Do not drink alcoholic beverages (liquor beer and wine) 18. Do not eat candies (hard candies, candy bars, drops) 19. Use hot red peppers (Ground Cayenne, Red Crushed), Cinnamon, Fresh Ginger, Fresh Garlic, Fresh onions 20. Raw Foods one day a week.Set aside one day per week for just raw foods. You must not starve yourself. This is the hardest part of this program with the most benefit. It will add digestive enzymes, help cleanse some of the toxins from liver and colon. This is similar to Juice Fasting except much easier. You are allowed only raw fresh fruits, raw fresh vegetables, Boiled or Bottled water (Chlorine free) and fresh fruit juices.The process lasts 36 hours from 8 pm of night before to 8 am morning after.MORNINGDrink one cup of warm boiled or bottled water with juice of half lemon and some honey.

Exercise can be hard as it requires some self-sacrifice. You ll have to break your energy level to build your body up.First, I would recommend you stay at the gym. As proven, diets alone will not be a cure-all. However, a steady meal plan will make a difference.1: Replace any liquid beverages with water. If it s hard to do, drink juice and mix it with some water. I would recommend Orange Juice or anything LOADED with Vit C. It has a lot of health benefits.*Tip: Drinking a glass of cold water right when you wake up will start weight loss.2: Eat a breakfast. Please be sure to eat complex carbo s. These are essential to weight loss and the meal itself will bring your metabolism up.*Tip: Eat a regular pattern. Up at 6am. 6:30 ate breakfast, 7:30 had a yogurt, 8:30 ate whatever. It will break your body out of starvation mode.3: Watch your portions. Eat slow and enjoy your health :)

It is a possibility to lose weight fast but you should be realistic and take on board that if you lose weight quickly then you will without doubt put it all back on again just as quickly. I lost 7 pounds in recent times when I had a special celebration to go to, and I did it by following the guidance presented on the site in the box below.
