1) Invent a time machine
2) Go back 3 months
3) Start dieting and exercising without killing yourself in the process.
But seriously:
1) Calculate your
basal metabolic rate
2) Buy a calorie counter and a good pedometer
3) Buy an exercise bike
4) Keep your calorie intake 1,000 calories below your BMR. Use the calorie counter to follow your intake, the pedometer to measure how many calories you burn during the day, and the exercise bike to burn more off.
Don't immediately drop to this level, however; take a week or two to gradually get down to it, and then stay there.
I am doing this, and have lost 20 pounds in 2.5 months. I eat anything I want, I just count the calories, and when I go over my intake goal, I burn it off on the bike. I also exercise in the morning, as having a negative caloric balance gives me more options for lunch.
This doesn't take iron will - you won't feel like you're starving or anything. You just have to get through the false starts you will have until you're finally committed to losing the weight.
