are you trying to maintain your weight or lose weight?
really there are no tricks involved and the old tried and true are what works.
eat reasonable calories (check the stickied threads in nutrition if you don't understand reasonable)
eat a healthy diet (ditto checking the stickied threads)
and move regularly...

What are your goals?
My basic ideas would be: eat sensibly, workout regularly including cardio.
Lots Of Ideas..
There are no limits to the ideas we can come up with. The questions I would ask are, what do you want to accomplish? how badly do you want the results? what are you willing to do? Many people think they want to acheve a certain change in their physical body until they hear what is required, the sacrifice they need to make, the discipline and patience they need to develop. When the reality sets in they bail out! Where do you fit in?

1. Don't starve yourself.
2. See a doctor?
3. Get a treadmill. (I have a $500 one.)

Are you trying to loose or maintain? Either way, I would check out Cinch. If you are maintaining just doing it for, say, breakfast would be a great ideas and would make sure you got all your vitamins for the day. If you are loosing then doing 2 meals a day with Cinch and one regualr meal would be my recommendation. Cinch actually keeps 100% of your muscle mass so you loos inches(thanks to it being powered by leucine). You should check it out for yourself... LEt me know if you are intesrested in more info. Happy loosing!!
lol it looks so funny.i would also say that what works is specific to the person.
*if you want to be able to eat ANYTHING you want, something like weight watchers is good. they allow you to eat anything, but within certain portion limits. the more of foods that are high in points you choose, the less of other food you get for the day.
*if you can limit carbs to almost no bread, rice, pasta, etc, something like atkins.
*if you want to enjoy carbs AND proteins, but can keep them seperate (in different meals), then something like the diet from suzanne sommers or don lemmon are good.
*if you can handle switching to food that seems bland at first, but you adjust to, then tosca reno has a good book.
if your cals are low and energy output high, your body will hang on to what goes in, fearing starvation.
drink plenty of water to keep your system flushed, no matter what method of weight loss you choose.
*you can do cardio every day, and it is recommended to do weight training only every OTHER day to let your muscles recover.
*start at a pace that is comfortable for you, and work your way up. pushing too much too soon will just get you overly sore, overly tired, and frustrated to the point of quitting.
GOOD LUCK!
