By next week you could be 47 lbs over.
Seriously it's not healthy to lose more than 3 pounds a week at that weight
and when you get closer to being fit 2 pounds a week.

If you want to lose weight DIET, that is the key.
Here are some tips.

Drink water.
Eat a lot of vegetables.
Eat lean meats.
When eating carbs eat only whole grain (not whole wheat, whole grain).
Eat smaller meals more often.
Take a 2-a-day vitamin.
Don't eat anything that's fried.
Don't eat anything hydrogenated
Stay away from refined sugars.
Lower your sodium intake.
Stay away from caffeine (limit to one drink a day)
Go for a nice walk in the morning and afternoon.
No carbs after 5 pm unless you are going to be very active after that
No food at all after 7 pm

and voila you're losing weight.

I agree with everything except the whole wheat thing. Wheat is a grain. Whole wheat = whole grain.

Avoid multigrain if it doesn't say "whole" before it.
