The only way to lose weight is to burn more calories than you consume. I would suggest creating a 500 calorie deficit per day, 250 through food and 250 through exercise. What that means exactly is that you should burn about 250 calories a day through exercise (about a 30 min run or fast walk) and eat 250 calories less. This is a safe pace to lose weight, about 1-2 lbs a week. Good luck! Also, visit mypyramid.gov to figure out how many calories you should be consuming daily since I do not know your height/weight/age, etc.
If you are overweight and if you do not take care of it, you may come across various health problems like high blood pressure, diabetes, heart diseases, etc. Many people who are overweight may feel insecure or dejected. Hence in order to get rid of the weight quickly, you have to consciously set targets to reduce weight. A combination of good diet and exercise can get you adequate results. You should refrain from eating junk food and oil rich diet, because they slow down the metabolism, increase the fat deposition in your body and cause problems to the heart.
