There is no magic cure for all people. Each person is different. But, here is the general idea to loose weight.
Consume less calories, exercise more.
I assume that I am going to get nasty comments, but the combination of those two things are what will really help in the long run. You may drop 20 lbs on the latest fad diet, but you'll gain it back when the diet wears thin!
One piece of advice I want to share is this though. If you are craving chocolate, eat chocolate. Or ice cream, chips, what ever it is your craving. But do it in moderation. This is how I would end up....
Hmmm I want candy. I will have an apple.
10 min later.....
Apple didnt do it, I'll have some fruit snacks.
10 min later......
That didn't work. Maybe a small cookie or two.
10 min later....
Argh! Fine. I'll just eat the whole king size candy bar.
I would end up consuming WAY more calories than if I would have just eaten the stupid candy.

Make all your food raw. Just go 100% raw foods for 30 days straight. No counting carbs, calories, fat, protein, etc. I did this and dropped 12 of my last 17 lbs that I had struggled with for over a year. I dropped those 12 lbs in a month without even trying. The only thing I didn't make raw were my drinks. I still drank coffee, green tea and herbal tea and had a double shot latte one time a week, and these were still the results I got. Keeping the non-raw drinks in might slow down the detoxification and cleansing process, but if you're not ready for such a drastic change, it's good to keep the drinks in then. I still eat around 80% raw foods and have been maintaing my weight loss (I went on to lose the other 5 the following month) just nicely!

LEMON JUICE..!! LOTS OF IT..!! AND not the BOTTLED STUFF..THAT'S PROCESSED, AND DOESN'T WORK!!...
Bake the lemons @ a low heat in your oven (250-350 F), until the skin cracks. Juice your lemon, and use at least 2 tablespoons a day! This aids in the digestive tract, strengthens the gums,cures most gum disease, and boosts the immune system!! Lemons are a 'body disinfectant', killing those 'bad' bacteria. Go look on the web, for yourself..you may find that some doctor or naturalpathic doctor has the simular info out there somewhere.!! Very effective at weight loss too.!!
Try making your favorite iced tea, slice lemons up and put them in the jug, add sweetener to taste. (mmmm YUM!)

Do NOT skimp on healthy carbs. The Atkins diet is asking for a heart attack and numerous other health problems. Any good doctor will tell you it is horrible. Eventually you will break down and go off it, and when you do you will gain weight SO much faster than going off any other diet. Some good diet tricks are: go running and if you can sprint at the end of your run, tone the parts of your body you hate like you stomach, thighs and butt. So do sit ups or that machine the Ab Slider is really good if you start out with a little each day and keep at it. To avoid getting a really sore stomach do a backbend after you exercise it. For you butt and thighs, put your hands behind your head and crouch like you are going to sit down, then come back up to standing position. Do this repeatedly, or you can just hold the crouching position. Also whenever you are just sitting around flex you thighs or but or move your feet or something so you can get even more exercise in. Drink lots of Green Tea preferably organic and decaffeinated. And eat healthy, all natural foods, as much organic as you can. Dont eat white flour, and skimp on sugar fat and salt. and drink lots and lots of water. Ice water helps you burn calories because your body has to work to raise its temp again. Eat when you are hungry and eat until you are comfortably but not overly full. Have 3 meals a day plus one or two snacks. And every once and a while eat something unhealthy so you dont go crazy. Always eat whole grains instead of bleached flour and bran is wonderful too because when you s*#@ you lose weight. And bran cleanses your digestive system. Plus remeber that appearance is about 1% as important as tv would like to make it seem. Please dont become anorexic. I wish you infinite good luck and blessings, oh and sorry for the very imperfect english but its not a term paper. Rock on

Double your doseage of water during the day. Experts say to take your weight and divide it by 2 and that is how many ounces of water you should drink a day or more. It will flush your system of all it's crap and you will have clearer skin and unchapped lips and feel more energized as well. It works for me and it's cheap.

My aunt's doctor told her to grink a full 8 oz. glass of water before and after meals to make yourself feel fuller so you won't eat as much. She tried it and lost 25 lbs.

If you are just looking to tone, and loose a few inches quickly I would suggest trying a herbal body wrap. Going to a spa and getting this is around $90 per treatment. I am going to give you a recipe to create your own. It worked for me, hopefully it would work for you as well.
SIMPLE WRAP
Clay Body Wrap Recipe
1 cup bentonite or green clay
1/4 cup sea salt
2 tbsp. olive oil
2 cups water
You can also add some herbs and esential oils.
herbs: Alfalfa leaf powder, ground basil, chamomile flower powder, rose petal powder, rosehip powder
esential oils: Lavender, sage, lemon, sandlewood, lemongrass, rosemary, grapefruit, olive oil
Boil water and add sea salt until it is dissolved. Add remaining ingredients and stir. Adjust the water if necessary to form a wet paste.
Rub the mixture over your entire body and cover yourself with thin towels or a clean white sheet. For better results wrap yourself in plastic wrap over the exsisting towel or white sheet that is used
Lay in the tub for a minimum of 45 min. to one hour
This is also a good way to draw toxins out of your body. This can be messy so I would suggest taking the wrap in the bath tub
DRINK LOTS OF WATER!

Don't overfill yourself. Stop eating as soon as you have your first belch, or to about 3/4 of your food capacity. Eating to full capacity or overeating will stretch the stomach.

I know everyone is on the low-carb or no-carb diets right now but i lost 50 in like 10 months pounds eating just carbs and fruit. call me crazy but i found that for a snack i would grab a tortilla and eat it totally plain and it filled me up. almost to the point where i wasnt hungry for the next meal hours later. and when i wanted something sweet i ate watermelon, a peach, or a couple of strawberries. i had little to no cravings for anything else. And you know what i didnt even know i was doing it until my mother pointed out that all i was eating was carbs and fruit. so if i didnt even notice for like 6 months and i was losing so much weight how bad could it be?
