One of the best way of losing weight, or if you are targeting the best diet for losing tummy fat, then it depends on the level of weight loss you are targeting. Actually, I am not sure what kind of level you are aiming for but basically if you are a fast food lover, eat the burger but abandon the fries and soft drinks.
Do some simple jogging, strolling exercises but my personal recommendation is to try skipping. One of the most effective exercises that builds muscle as well as raises your metabolism.
Then slowly start applying diet techniques to your meals. 70% of your initial weight loss will come from diet and then you can incorporate your exercises to lose more weight. Just do not expect miracles. Just be active and eat right every day! Good luck!

Let's take the word and advice of an expert on this kind of program of losing weight.
From this article written by an eHow Health Editor, http://www.ehow.com/how_4622_lose-weight.html
Figuring out how to lose weight is a challenge for many of us, particularly considering that the quickest path to weight loss is different for everyone. Of course, the common denominator is always proper diet and exercise, which not only aid in weight loss, but also keep a body healthy. Of course you've heard this before--the challenge is to follow through. Others have lost weight by following these simple guidelines, and so can you.
1. Set small, realistic goals. If you have a lot of weight to lose, try for 5 pounds, relax a bit and then go for 5 more.
2. Start a regular exercise program and stick with it. Don't be afraid of those sweat suits and Lycra pants!
3. Sneak in extra exercise in addition to your regular program. Park at the far end of the parking lot and walk; take the stairs instead of the elevator.
4. Eat low-fat, high-fiber foods such as salads and vegetable pastas.
5. Choose foods that you like. Learn to prepare healthful, low-calorie foods that taste good by checking healthy cook books for new recipes. Eating well doesn't have to mean eating dull.
6. Eat smaller, more frequent meals. This way, your body starts to increase its metabolism so that calories are burned faster. Also, mini-meals can prevent overeating.
7. Plan ahead. Keep the fridge stocked with healthful food and you'll be less likely to run out for high-calorie, high-fat junk food.
8. Keep a food diary. This will help you pinpoint where you can improve your diet.
9. Once you discover your favorite snack time, be sure to have plenty of healthful options available.
As tips and warnings -
* Lose weight with a friend, or join a support group.
* Avoid those vending machines by carrying around your own healthful foods and leaving pocket change at home.
* Try oatmeal instead of cornflakes for breakfast--eating oatmeal can help reduce cholesterol levels, and its high fiber content will keep you full longer.
* Choose an exercise program that you enjoy, and don't shun the unconventional. For instance, did you know that regular vigorous dancing is exercise too?
* Lose weight gradually--you are more apt to keep it off. A safe amount is 1 to 1 1/2 pounds per week.
* Consult a doctor to find an exercise program that is best for you.
* Crash diets can help you lose weight quickly, but most people gain the weight back. Some of these diets are also unhealthy and dangerous. If you choose to go with a specific diet plan, choose one that is medically credible.
* If you have any questions or concerns, contact a physician or other health care professional before engaging in any activity related to health and diet. This information is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice or treatment.
