yeah....
but if you go nuts and eat a lot less, you'll just gain the weight back once you eat normally
the best way is to have like 5 or 6 small meals throughout the day... keep your body working... and of course do some exercise

QFT.
Cut out soda, anything with high fructose corn syrup, and candies as a whole.
Doing that alone I had dropped 5lbs. Adding in exersize and switching to smaller more heathly meals dropped me another 10lbs, and has REALLY transformed the way I look(I've gained about 20lbs of muscle in addition to dropping weight weight. I've still got a gut, but it's MUCH smaller than before, and if I keep doing what I'm doing, I'll probably end up losing it all together).
Your body can adjust it's metabolism to suit your diet, if it goes hungry it'll slow it right down (makes you feel cold/lethargic) but if you keep yourself from going hungry with balanced foods it will speed up and you will slowly lose weight.
Exercise will greatly increase weight loss.

Eating less than how much? What is the starting point? What is your daily caloric intake?
Height, weight, age?
Yes, your food sources should be clean and unprocessed.
A tip of mine is to shop for food around the perimeter of the store. Don't stray into the aisles. This will keep you away from canned, boxed and prepacked foods and steer you towards fresh meats, diary, fruits, vegatables and breads.
Bread from your stores bakery, not the prepacked garbage. On prepacked breads, even if a loaves says 'whole grain' check the ingredients. More than likely it contains HFCS.
Of course. Losing / Gaining weight is 70% diet. The rest is exercise. If all you are doing is changing your eating habits, then that will affect your weight significantly.
so you people mean that eat more smaller meals instead of big meals, then the body would be processing all the time and you'll lose wieght?? i'm asking coz i've developped a small belly and wanna get rid of it.
Yes, but your body will also interpret this as "food is scarce" times and lower metabolism. Once you start eating again your metabolism will stay the same and your body will store extra calories in reserves (eg fat cells). This means that you will be fatter than when you began the whole endeavor if you return to "normal" (ie pre-fasting) consumption.
Only if you starve yourself. If you eat healthy, and limit your calories to a reasonable amount, no problems.

start counting calories sucka because that's the only way you're going to start losing weight efficiently.
if you wanna look good, you gotta lift and do cardio as well or else... when you do lose weight (if too fast because of just eating less), you're going to have a lot of loose skin flapping around and such.
