Agree with the above statements about diets. My mother-in-law is always paying for some fad diet and I always shake my head. Weight loss is pretty straight forward, if you burn more calories than you consume, then you will lose weight. Figure out your ideal calorie intake and then try to stick with it. I used to be big time into lifting and my calorie target was around 2500. Not saying you have to eat nothing but chicken and fruit as you need at least one cheat day per week.
as little rob said - measure your results. whether it be minutes on a treadmill, weight sets, body fat, etc...if you don't measure you don't have a target and won't ever meet your goals.
