Deduct the calorie intake by at least 600 calories/day
I am not sure if you are familiar with the fact that 4 kcal equals to 1 pond. So if you want to lose one pond in one week period, you are supposed to burn minimum of 500 calories a day more than what you intake. If you want to lose 52 ponds in a year then you must minimize the intake of calories by 250 and burn 250 calories per day with any of exercise program you choose. This is the most trustful way to lose 52 ponds in a calendar year.
8 hours sleep is must
Seven to Eight hours sleep in a night is must for you if you want to lose weight because body under goes repairing mode when you sleep. Body recharges itself when you are sleeping and this recharging phase has its own merit for weight lose achievement.
A multivitamin tablet daily
Water soluble and fat soluble vitamins will help boost your body health. In the weight lose program you are not eating the best available foods, which can cause vitamin deficiency. A multivitamin a day will help you maintain vitamin and mineral balance of your body.
Say goodbye to coke and hello to H2O

Reduce fast foods and increase natural foods
Fast foods are abundant in calories and sugars; on the other hand natural foods like fruits, vegetables, are low in calories and full of nutrients which are more needed by your body during weight loss program. In nutshell, avoid processed foods as much as you can.
Go to gym at least 3-4 times a week
