Eat protein.Protein fuels your muscles, stabilizes your blood sugar and consequently your metabolism, and it prevents your being hungry. Flab, fatigue, and hunger pangs are the result of a lack of protein.

Eat fats.Eliminate unhealthy fats like hydrogenated oils (French fries)Eat the healthy fats found in wild fish and nuts. These fats-Omega 3 essential fatty acids- are actually so important to your body's functioning, that you will find it difficult to lose weight without consuming them.

Do not eliminate carbohydrates. Reducing" the amount of carbohydrates  will help you lose weight, however, you must reduce only the bad carbs and increase the good. Fruits and vegetables help you burn fat, while processed and refined wheat and grains cause you to build up the fat.

Eliminate artificial sweeteners: Sucrolose, saccharin, aspartame and sorbitol... these are poisons and are worse for your health than sugar itself They are linked to tumors, and to obesity.  They actually promote weight gain by disrupting your body's natural hormones -specifically the hormone Leptin.. (An acceptable alternative to sugar and artificial sweeteners is the supplement STEVIA.)

Eat smaller more frequent meals. Eat six or seven well portioned meals as opposed to three bigger meals each day. This eliminates the spikes in your blood sugar and allows your metabolism to run steady all day. It is during the blood sugar spikes following large meals that much of the weight gain happens.

Exercise.Walk, ride a bike, swim, golf, play raquetball...do something that provides a bit of vigorous exercise every day.  No... going to the office and working at your desk all day is not adequate.Exercise by itself will do wonders for your physique and your state of well being.
