I need to lose weight quick, for a special event, What worked for you?

I need to lose weight for a special event I have to attend! Did you try anything that helped you drop weight! I don’t really have time for more of an exercise routine than I already have.
Thanks for any Ideas!

The best way to lose weight or maintain a healthy weight is through changing your eating habits and exercising regularly.

1. Choose whole grains.

2. Drink plenty of water.

3. Choose lean meats and fish.

4. Know the portion sizes for your calorie target.

5. Limit fats to an average of 15 grams per meal.

6. Choose fresh fruits and vegetables whenever possible.

7. Work out for no less that 45 minutes, 4-5 days a week.

8. Select foods with less than 3 grams of fat per 100 calories.

9. Choose pretzels, baked chips, fat-free popcorn instead of fries and chips.

10. Avoid foods with partially hydrogenated oils, trans-fats and high-fructose corn syrup.

11. Choose cereal, bread, crackers or chips that contain 2 or more grams of fiber per 100 calories.

12. Choose fat-free or low-fat variety of foods especially when it comes to dairy products (milk, cheese, and yogurt).

    What works for me is run everyday. A couple of miles. Eat healthy instead of eating 3 big meals, eat 4-6 smaller portioned meals. Dont ever skip breakfast. Breakfast is very important. If you skip it you can actually gain weight from that. And drink alot of water.
