How can I lose 40 pounds by the end of May?

I am approximatly 5ft 3in and i weight about 156. In school, I'm surrender fit for life for an hour, 5 days a week. I generally a granola bar or something for breakfast, a fruit or a snack for lunch and a sandwich for supper. Is this healthy? Any ideas on how to lose weight? Also, I do not drive and cannot go to a gym. Please no rude comments or critique.

I think the best method is to actually commit to a change of lifestyle — nothing extreme as the Atkins diet or a starvation diet never worked for me long term. Choices, lots of fruits / vegetables and I try usually drink lots of green tea all day when you try to lose weight. Cut your food into small portions frequently (6 per day) seems also help as well as taking long walks. I have a sister-in-law who has lost at least 60 pounds several years ago and really managed to avoid in implementing change liftestyle: smart choices, smaller portions, exercise regularly. This is even not a challenge for her over – good luck!
