How can i get to healthy weight safely?

5 pounds at a time: Lose 5 pounds only, then practice keeping it off for 2-3 months before shooting for more. Keeping it off is the habit your need most! this is not fast or "sexy". It won't sell a lot of diet books. But adjusting your habits to maintain a small weight loss is the key to living in a more healthy-sized body the rest of your life. Anybody can crash diet but few know how to keep it off.
