Simple, but not....: ....Easy at all. Being over weight is a simple matter of too many calories eaten and not enough burned off. That said, it can be very, very difficult for some people to lose weight. There are many weight loss programs available, but they all have one thing in common; in every one of them the number of calories you eat per day is reduced. Good luck to you.

Diet and exercise: To lose fat/weight in general, it comes down to diet and exercise. Keep a food journal so you can document when and where you may be overeating, and join a community program that encourages physical activity.
