I went from 240lbs down to 185lbs without working out at all. It was the easiest thing I've ever done. - the Atkins diet. just cut out the carbs (bread, potatos, rice, etc). it's real easy.

dig down in the "how to do Atkins" section, and look for "Rules of Induction".
oh, it took me less than 3 months.
