1- Discuss a diet plan with a registered dietician. These are different animals than nutritionists. Nutritionists tend push vitamins, supplements and miracle programs. A dietician has a professional science education and will prescribe a safe diet program.
2- Consider joining one of the bigger diet centers if you think it will help. The ones that have been around a while have a good success rate.
3- Set reasonable goals. If you expect to lose too much too fast you may fail, gain it back, or make yourself ill. A diet should be about long-term results, not a quick fix.

4- Create a calorie deficit. A pound of fat is worth 3,500 calories. Divide that by seven and that means you should aim to remove 500 calories a day from your life in order to lose a pound a week.
5- Move your body more. This can be by exercising or just dancing in the living room. Do sit ups while watching TV or go for a walk around the building during your coffee break. Every little bit helps.
6- Get your five a day. If you make sure you get 5 to 7 fruit and vegetable servings a day (like the food pyramid recommends), you might find you are not so hungry after all.
