As far as diet plans go South Beach gives you really fast results but it's pretty difficult. It has 3 phases (but you will only get through the first 2 because you only have a month). [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
If you choose south beach then I suggest you go to Borders ot Barnes and N. and buy their book so you can have a list of all the food you can eat during each phase. I don't know it by memory. However for salads you can only have fat free/sugar free dressings or just vinegar and olive oil. You cannot have fried chicken, you can have boiled or grilled though.
Another quick diet thing that works is what i call the 5 day smash. I use it before I have to go to like an important event, party. For 5 days only you can't have any fatty foods, sugar, sodas, carbs. For instance you can eat this: cottage cheese, plain low far/fat free yogurt, boiled eggs, water, black coffee, tea, boiled chicken breast, salmon/tuna out of the can (this eliminates frying it and adding fats and oils), grilled chicken, salads with vinegar and olive oil dressing. This works but it's EXTREMELY difficult. And you might gain it all back... so there is a downside. It's only good for if you need to meet a weight for something.
As far as exercise goes, the more you do it, especially with a really high in protein diet like south beach then it will really speed up the results but it's not necessary because you might get dizzy because you're not eating tons of fat. I excercizes like 3 days a week. 20 minutes on the eliptical or terdmill and then 20 minutes of muscle workouts. Various types of crunches (legs up, legs to the side, legs straight down, normal), pushups, leg lifts for inner and outter thighs, and 5 pound weight bicept, tricept, and back excercizes. I barely broke a sweat but it worked.
