Answers:
Here is a diet used by the hospitals to help people lose weight for surgery so obviously it burns alot of weight fast!. I was going to try it until I found out you MUST eat everything and can't substitute ANYTHING with ANYTHING or will NOT work!. Here it is (:
First Day
Breakfast
black coffee/tea
1/2 grapefruit or ping grapefruit juice
1 slice toast
1 tbs peanut butter
Lunch
1/2 cup tuna or broiled skinless chicken
1 slice toast w/cheddar cheese
black coffee/tea
Dinner
2 slices of meat (3 oz) or small broiled steak
1 cup string beans
1 cup beets or carrots
1 small apple
1/2 cup vanilla ice cream
Second Day
Breakfast
black coffee/tea
1 egg
1 slice toast
1/2 banana
Lunch
5 saltine crackers
1 cup cottage cheese or 1/2 cup tuna
black coffee/tea
Dinner
2 wieners boiled or fried
1 cup broccoli or cabbage
1/2 cup carrots or turnips
1/2 cup vanilla ice cream
Third Day
Breakfast
black coffee/tea
5 saltine crackers
1 slice cheddar cheese
1 apple
Lunch
1 hard-boiled egg
1 slice toast
black coffee/tea
Dinner
1 cup tuna or chicken or turkey
1 cup beets or carrots
1 cup cauliflower, cantaloupe, banana or greens
1/2 cup vanilla ice cream
1/2 cup cantaloupe
Notes
This diet is used at the Baptist Hospital Weight Reducing Clinic!. It works on a chemical breakdown and is a proven diet!. Salt and pepper may be used but no other seasonings!. Do vary of substitute any of the foods!. Do not use sugar or salt substitutes!. Where no quantity is given, use common sense!. Do not eat between meals!. Drink all the unsweetened tea or coffee you want!. Drink lots of water!. Diet drinks are permissible!. Stay on this diet for 3 days!. Eat normal meals the other 3 days!.
From there, maintain it; use myfitnesspal!.com and make an account-- go to tools and look up your BMR (say your 18 ONLY when you register) and that's how many calories you burn if you were to stay in bed 24hours!. Eat that many calories (or less) and keep track by entering your foods!.
I am 12 but I have been trying to lose and maintain my weight all of my life and my Mom helps me a lot so I know quite a bit!. If you have access to a gym or gym equiptment, use the Stair Stepper on Program 12-- it burns 1400calories per HOUR I used it a lot but now I'm kind of off track but it's AMAZING!!!!
And if you are hungry-- we ALL have this problem, and feel like eating for 4hours, try eating one sandwhich or whatever you are eating and wait 10mins and drink two glasses of water before, after AND during your meal!. So wait 10 mins and then, if you are still hungry, eat 3 more bites and wait 10 more minutes drinking water then you have to toughin' up and put it up!. When and if you work out, bring a mug of ice with you (this is good even on a daily basis when you are bored and "hungry" like all America)!. Eat the bite sized ice (you can get this from Sonic) and just munch on it-- it hydrates you and you feel like you're snacking!. Unforunately, for many of us, it's NOT a diet-- it has to be a lifestyle choice!. But, if you want to slack off a week, WATCH and if you see that you are getting a little weight back, get back on track!. Hope this helps and good luck!!!
About the foods I eat when I am dieting, here they are:
Breakfast- Usually Eggs and Cole's Little Sizzler's Sausage!.
Lunch- Sandwhich (tuna or Meat& Cheese, OR Spam and Mild Cheddar Cheese!.
Dinner- Anything though I recommend Grilled Chicken or a Salad!. (:Www@Answer-Health@Com

You can find lots of helpful information on the website below, but here are some suggestions:
Here's a list of some healthy snacks to eat:
1)Fiber One bars (delicious, especially the chocolate and oats)
2)Kashi TLC Trailmix bars (my personal favorites)
3)Gnu Bars (have 12 grams of fiber in each one!)
4)handful of almonds or walnuts or pistachio nuts (already shelled, of course)
5)an apple cored and quartered and a little bit of peanut butter in a plastic container to dip it in!.
6)grapes, or a box of raisins
7)string cheese or a wedge of Laughing Cow cheese, or an ounce of a hard cheese
8)low-fat popcorn in a baggie
9)baby carrots and a little hummus (in a plastic container)
10) a couple of those "Ones Prunes"!. They're delicious!
11)dried fruit
12)whole-grain pretzels
13)whole-grain crackers w/ peanut butter or cheese
14)some cream cheese smeared on luncheon meat and then rolled up like a cigar
15)a piece of dark chocolate
As for breakfast: Kashi trailmix bar!. They're delicious and usually held me until an early lunch!. Hard boiled eggs would be a good choice!. A half of peanut butter sandwich on whole-grain bread with a banana would be healthy and filling!. A single serving of oatmeal for the microwave with a piece of fruit would be good!. I like to eat dry cheerios, so that would be good with fruit!.
For lunch or dinner: the Weight Watchers and Lean Cuisine frozen dinners are hard to beat!. They can be ready in the microwave in 4 minutes on high (I never follow the package directions) and they really pretty delicious!. Add a piece of fruit or small salad with diet dressing and you're ready to go! One of my favorite things to take to eat is soup!. There's a lot of research out now that says soup is great for losing weight!. I usually make a big pot of vegetable soup on Sunday and separate it into five containers for work!. Add some whole-grain crackers and/or a piece of fruit!. You could add brown rice or beans to the soup to make it even healthier!. The website below has some easy and delicious soup recipes (and lots of weight loss tips)!. Another thing I'll do is make a big container of bean salad!. I rinse different canned beans (garbanzo, black, kidney, etc!.) and throw them together with cut up celery, carrots, bell peppers, 1 Tablespoon of olive oil and 4 Tablespoons of red wine vinegar!. Toss in some salt, pepper, and garlic powder and let it "marinate" in the fridge for however long you want!. I then take it a cup of it to work each day for a different lunch!. You could add a small salad, fruit, whatever!.!.!.
I hope this helps some!. Good luck!

In terms of diet, cut out or reduce things like junk food, pop, fat, fast food!. Eat more fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean meat, fish!. Particularly if you choose a vegetarian lifestyle include natural peanut butter, hummus, dried fruit and nuts!. Pay close attention to getting the nutrients your body needs to be healthy!.
Make your portion sizes smaller!. Use a smaller plate - in our society we have become accustomed to thinking that we need a large plate of food at every meal, and we don't!. About quarter of your plate of food should be protein and at least half of it should be veggies!.
Learn to count calories!. At your current weight and activity level, you may need about 2000 calories or more to maintain your current weight!. So you will lose weight at a reasonable and healthy rate if you cut back to about 1600 or 1700 calories a day!.
Eat small amounts frequently, rather than three large meals!. Never skip breakfast!. Include some protein in your breakfast!. It will help get you through the day!.
Drink plenty of water, at least 8 big glasses of water a day, and more if it is very hot, if you sweat a lot, or if you are exercising intensely, and eliminate fruit juices!. Fruit juices have too many calories, so get your vitamins from fresh fruit, not the juice!. You will begin to see changes in your body!.
Check out websites about nutrition, exercise, weight training, etc!. Here are a few helpful links!.
