weight watchers.FI and I have been doing it since January and it is the best. I did everything from diet pills, to slim fast, to counting calories and nothing worked.
we joined WW and he has lost 50 pounds and I have lost 25.
It helps you with portions, developing good eating habbits, and you will loose and as long as you stay on the program you will keep it off.
Its not a diet, but a way of life. You can have cheeseburgers, fries, taco bell, wendy's, but as long as you stick to your points you cant go wrong.
Its a great and very healthy program

Re: HELP! I need to loose 75 lbs by next August !
just keep in mind that it is totally possible...2 pounds a week (in the beginning it might be more...in the end...less) in 10 months is 80+ pounds...
keep a food journal...that only you will look at...so you will only be cheating yourself if you don't put every piece of food you eat in there. journaling is one of the biggest diet aids...you are definitely less likely to eat something if you have to right it down...
exercise exercise exercise....make sure that you sweat!!!
and try to stay away from processed foods...
good luck

I lost 100 pounds on Weight Watchers in a year.. so I KNOW it's possible! It's all about your determination!I'm on my WW Part II journey, and this time I've lost 50 pounds in... about six months, so I guess I'm right on track again.
GOOD LUCK

Re: HELP! I need to loose 75 lbs by next August !
Although I havent lost any substantial weight yet, I did lose 5.6 pounds my first week and now I am on my second week and I feel like I lost alot more weight. I will find out tommorow. I am only trying to lose 17 pounds but I would like to keep it off. So I will hopefully become a lifetime member.Anyway...Just do what everyone else has said. If you dont like to excersize, or you dont have the time too, Try to be more active during the day. Take the stairs instead of the escalator. Park farther away from your office building, instead of driving to local stores, walk. This is what I do.
Also make sure you write down everything you eat, with portions. If you dont write them down, the only person you are cheating is yourself. I cannot believe the amount of food that I ate before i started weight watchers.
Drink at least 8 glasses of water a day. The more the better. Try to stay away from sugar, use sweet and low instead, Try not to drink that much diet soda, but if you do drink decaf because you can use it as your water count for the day.
Dont worry about what you eat and when you eat. Weight watchers isnt a diet, its a way of life. You will adapt yourself pretty quickly to a healthier way of eating.
When you go food shopping, bring your point counter with you. I have found it to be a life saver these past few times I have gone shopping. If I forget it, I feel lost.

Re: HELP! I need to loose 75 lbs by next August !
I agree with WW, I 've lost about 18 lbs since March. The plan is easy and you don't feel like you are on a diet. Good luck, you can do it!
