Laura brings up a very good point!

Studies show that people who loose weight quickly (ie 20 lbs a month) are much more likely to gain that weight back than people who loose more slowly (say 5 lbs a month) 1 - 2 lbs a week are what the doctors tend too recommend.

Also, if you don't look at this as a "weight loss program" but instead as a lifestyle change you are more likely to keep the weight off. Eating healthier and exercising will be a much better way to get rid of it and keep it GONE than a fad diet that you can not sustain for life.
