I want to lose weight as fast as possible - 2-3lbs per week :]
I need food and exercise plans, please.

Losing 1-2 pounds a week is best and normal. Not 2-3 pounds every week.
1. You don't want to lose muscle, that is bad! Your muscle burns calories…
2. If you lose fast, you are more likely to keep it off long term.
3. Never, ever eat less than 1200 calories for a female, and 1500 calories for a male
4. Weight loss=diet and exercise
5. Don't get discouraged if the scale doesn't move. It should be more about being healthy. Also when one begins to diet and exercise, they might gain some weight in the beginning because their muscles are holding more fluids.
6. Eat enough Fiber
7. Drink at least 8 cups of water a day, or more depending on your exercise and if it is hot where you live

You shouldn't rush things like that. Weight loss programs are all bad if they involve any type of medicine/drug. Everything you eat should be healthy ( try to eat organic as much as possible).
The Main key here is BALANCE, you need to balance the proportion of food you eat with exercise. And another thing is definitely NO FAST FOOD, the only reason I say that is because fast food is practically synthetic and will never help anyone. Its basically composed of chemicals one would never eat, so I don't suggest it. Nothing thats artificially made or synthetic. In Ayurveda they say that when you have a meal 1/3 of your stomach should be filled with food, another 3rd with water, and another empty. This is for the best digestion, If you do these simple things you'll be fine.

My cousin has been taking the Acai Berry for a few months and she has dropped over 40 lbs. It's amazing how well a fruit from the Amazon can work as a weight loss supplement.
