All I've done is limit myself to 1500 calories a day. I don't limit the range of food I eat or anything like that. I just use small portions and eat at least five times a day to keep my metabolism revved up. Of course, if you exercise, the weight will come off faster.
Just remember that women are genetically built to retain fat and it is the thing that gives them the things guys love (breasts, ass and hips). 125 pounds would definitely be pretty reasonable for you. You can lose the 25 pounds in three months with the diet I'm on as long as you're really determined. Good luck. [ VoiceofReason's advice column | Ask VoiceofReason A Question ]

Instead, go for veggie sticks, salads, grilled vegetables, fruit (don't just stick to apples - experiment with mango, pineapple, papaya, dragon fruit, etc etc so you don't get bored), peanut butter is good, eggs are excellent.
I like masking a ranch style dip. Get 0% fat greek yogurt, and add some ranch dressing seasoning (the powder that comes in a packet). There is like 5 calories in a huge bowl of the stuff, and then use it to dip vegetables, etc.
You just want to use common sense really. Eat plenty of fruit and vegetables, some wholewheat/grain carbs, protein, and small amounts of fat. Avoid processed, fatty, salty, foods. When in doubt, stick to nature!

-eggs are always pretty filling but also healthier than many other foods (try them with a little bit of ketchup or marinara and don't put salt or cheese in them)
-banana with nutella
-apples and peanut butter
-pita chips instead of potato chips
-rice cakes
the easiest way to lose weight is to make your portion sizes a lot smaller. that means you don't have to stop eating your favorite foods, just eat less of them!
