I have had, and am having success right now, with a low carb/high protein diet. With this diet you eat a lot of meat, chicken, fish, eggs...things that are low in carbs which forces your body to burn fat instead of carbs. It's not too difficult and doesn't leave you feeling hungry all of the time. If you decide that you're interested in this and would like some meal planning ideas go to my Profile page and read my response to another poster who asked about it a few days ago.

There are a lot of DVd programs out there-I suggest the FIRM it is a combination of weights and cardio together. Along with clean eating cutting out the white breads, pasta and eating lean meats, fruits and veggies South Beach diet maybe a suggestion for you. Good luck!

Take the simplest approach, no pills, no magic diet, no special program. Just watch what you eat. Eat sensibly - eat regular foods, meat,, veggies, fruit, some carbs, in other words eat healthy. Stay away from junk like pop, chips, candy, sweets.(ok to have on occassion just not all the time) Stay away from things made with high fructose corn syrup. Try to stay away from breads and pasta. EXERCISE - even if it is a daily walk. With changing your eating habits and exercising you will notice a big difference and you may make it by December if you are real disiplined. and this way you can keep it off. Losing 2-4 pounds per week would be good and you can keep it off by losing it slower rather than faster. I think this method is the most healthiest and probably the less likely to put the weight back on. Good luck to you!

Nice one. My husband even bought a treadmill for me. Hopefully, I'd lose weight. Thanks for the advice.
