No offense Denya but eating 5-6 small meals is the best recipe for weight loss because that way you keep your metabolism functioning constantly.

Eating plenty of fruits and vegetables is a good part of eating for weight loss since they are dense in nutrients but low in calories. Be sure to include sufficient protein also about 20% lean cuts of chicken, turkey or fish are all great choices. Try staying away from sugars, baked goods, bad fats, and juices or pops.

Remeber 1 gram of carbohydrates and protein are worth 4 calories and yet 1 gram of fat is worth 9 calories. Saying this, be sure to stay away from too much fats and foods cooked with or including fats.

Exercise 4-6 days a week focusing on mainly cardio and weight training to help tone your body.

Take a mulitvitamin as that is always good for our health and listen to your body and do things gradually.

Good Luck

Just make sure that you only  lose 1-2lbs a week.  Eat 2-3 meals a day, and be sure they are balanced!!!  If you are craving something eat it, and don't deprive yourself that is a sure way to stay healthy...Hope this works for you.
