Need to know many things more about you before planning a program. Firstly, do not try to lose weight because you will always gain it back.

Not to give up anything. If any food you really like is a refined non-health-producing food, keep to a minimum. Find a passion in life, other than food. Be as active as possible. And you will be able to be slim & trim. Remember your bone structure dictates your size not the weighing scale. So long as you have the energy, have no health issues & feel fit, do not try to be a particular weight.
