    2 stone loss before xmas would not be advisable.
    Anyway a normal weight for your height would be around 13-7 (BMI etc)

    You need to do a lot of cardio (running, cycling, rowing etc) at least 4 times per week for 45 mins at least.
    This would get your heart rate up into a fat burning zone.
    You will burn cals.
    You will lose weight (provided you eat sensibly!!!)

    I reckon in 7/8 weeks you could lose 10-12 pounds.
    Anything much more than this could be unhealthy.

    There is no magic.
    Cals out must be more than cals in!!!
    Simples!!! :D
