I lost 70 pounds recently. It was one of the toughest things I have had to do.

1. Avoid eating out. Subway is OK.
2. Avoid eating at night. Cereal/Veggies are OK.
3. No starch Ex. White bread, White pasta, rice etc...
4. Run 3-4 times a week. No treadmills, no eliptical, no bike. Buy a pair of good running shoes and run outside. Start slowly and you will biuld up your stamina.
5. Avoid BEER! I have a problem with this one!
6. Limit things like Candy, French Fries, POP, doughnuts, etc... Don't cut it all out. Just eat in moderation
7. Try and have vegtables with every meal.

The key thing here is the running. Start with that and don't give up. Try to build up until you can run 7-9 km every time. Running works. Trust me!
