The safest method of weight loss remains a sensible diet and exercise routine supervised by your physician. Diet being the most important part.

Train your mind to focus on small goals and enjoy the journey, because if you focus on your ultimate goal which might be years away then you are much more likely to become discouraged and fail. Stress is the enemy of weight loss. Find a healthy outlet for your stress, or your body will choose junk food as its outlet and you are bound to fail.
