Try  a weight loss app like "lose it". Like Iaacas said "eat fewer calories than you burn"

You either eat less, exercise more, or some combination. 

One thing about an app, it really makes you look at what you are eating. Give up a scone a day (insert your treat of choice) could be a pound a week at 500 calories per piece. 3500 calories is around a pound. or Saying no to any food that is offered to you in the office. Plan ahead, reduce restaurant food.

Eat for what you have DONE, not what you are going TO DO. Good breakfast, medium lunch and small dinner. Add fruit. Best wishes, -Marv

I want to lose weight 10 kg in 3 months? So please advice me how to lose weight easily?

For most males the low carb will grant you pretty rapid weight loss. It’s simple in regards to being able to still eat yet lose weight. I was once up to 300lbs and went through many different ‘diets.’ Nothing gave me better results rapidly as low carb intake. There’s tons of reasearch in this field and it’s hard to keep up with. Many people have had success with a variety of methods. With low carb the biggest issue I have come across with poor results from people is that they really didn’t follow a plan. They didn’t really keep an honest account of their carb intake. Less than 20g/day for the first two weeks. It’s really not that hard. Meats, fish, cheese, eggs are the staples. Plenty of stuff out there to research. When I’ve porked up from stretches of poor eating I go on a low carb regimen and always get back to a good weight. I’ve stayed between 220-230lbs controlling my carbs ever since I came down from the big 300. It’s about life changes really. But I do think the low carb regimen would give you a positive boost in motivation the quickest.

As somebody who lost that amount in that sort of timeframe last year, here's a few hints that I believe helped me :

 - Cut out fizzy drinks/juices etc completely, these are wasted calories. Substitute with sweetened drinks (usually taste just as good) or just water. 
- Try and eat more protein, as losing weight will be hard on your body. Protein will also make you feel fuller.

- Also try eating more fiber (proportionally), as again this will help you feel fuller for longer, but you don't absorb the fiber. 
- I didn't used to eat until around midday - I wouldn't feel that hungry in the AM, so it was an easy fast. It's not 'standard' advice, which says eat a good breakfast, but I always found that i ate something early doors, I was hungry for more
- Another counter intuitive one was running before bed - I used to do bursts on the treadmill , shower and then bed - it didn't make me feel hungry, so it never seemed like i had to go and eat those calories afterwards. 

Weight came off fairly easily, and has remained off since (I reverted back to 'normal' once BMI hit 20)

Anecdotally I agree... as someone who has always struggled with trying to gain weight, one of the best things I've done is started to drink a protein shake in the morning. It's about 700 calories, and it immediately fills me up, but by lunch time I'm super hungry and have a large appetite. The less I eat for breakfast, the less hungry I am at lunch. Counter-intuitive.

Calculate your TDEE and put yourself in a caloric deficit of approximately 20%.  Incorporate strength training if you haven't already done so.

I did this and it was very successful because it allowed me to eat foods I wanted.  I pretty much follow a IIFYM diet.

    • Maybe this is what you were getting at?  Doing some math. Comparing JumboMax versus Tour Velvet, standard size in both.  I got the force required using the JumboMax grip, to achieve the same rotational acceleration as the Tour Velvet, is about 1.37 more for the JumboMax grip. Interestingly, the Jumbomax grip is about 17% larger than the Tour Velvet, and 17% lighter for the standard size. I just substituted out the radius and mass of the JumboMax as a ratio of the Tour Velvet's mass and radius. This allows me to cancel out the mass and radius and get a ratio for the force. If you need 100 (force units of your choice) to achieve a certain rotational acceleration, you will need 137 (force units of your choice).  There was another thread on the forum about offset, where it basically just delays closure by some stupidly small amount. A lot of fun math there.  Most golfers have to go from about 90 degrees open clubface at A4 to square at A7. So, having a grip that requires more force to close that clubface might not be the best idea pending the golf swing.  A question is, since the clubface is open at A4, and square at A7. Does that mean you want most of the closure to happen from A4 to let say A6, and not A6 to A7, for better consistently (less timing at impact). Just a thought.     
    • This reminds me of the old game Telephone, where someone tells a story to someone, that person tells it to the next person, and after a few re-tellings you see how badly mangled the story gets.  Most golfers learn the rules in a similar fashion, learning from someone who really doesn't know the rules themselves.  This isn't really helped by the fact that many golf professionals aren't all that knowledgeable about the rules.  In addition, most golfers have been told that the Rules are SO complicated and SO difficult to read that they never try to read for themselves. Now, having vented a bit, is there anything in particular you'd like to read?  
    • I hope to see more posts from you, @DaveP043, related to your Rules experiences. I was looking at a thread on a golf site. Reading some of the comments and discussion on a Provisional/Lost/Unplayable situation was like listening to fingernails on a chalk board. So many comments such as, "You MUST search for your ball" and "If you find your ball in an unplayable spot, just go play your provisional." It is always amazing to me how little we golfers know of the Rules of Golf.
    • I could use the old man's excuse ... I am on a fixed income. That would be a fib. The event sounds like a great time. My wife and I will be in Brazil for 2 weeks in May and I can't fit this trip into the schedule.
