How to quickly shed about 20 lbs. with a healthy diet, no exercise?

Question
I am a 5'6, 140 lb. female. I realize that exercise combined with proper nutrition is the best way to lose weight, but I would really appreciate it if you could suggest to me a healthy diet(s) that is nearly as effective for helping someone of my stature quickly shed about 20 pounds.  

Answer
Dear Jennifer,

I could be of better help to you if I knew more about your circumstances such as:

1. Body composition - because regardless the stature one can have different body fat percent. To figure it out, you might want to visit:

2. Your fitness level - I realize that you prefer to do without exercise but depending on your fitness level, your diet plan can be better adjusted so please take a test and calculate it here:

3. A lot can depend on your idea of a healthy diet(s) because in fact, there's no such thing! Any reduction diet is deficient though deficiency details depend on diet type: low carb diets are lacking some vitamins but low fat do just the same. Read more about it here:

After you learn more from the above articles, let's talk again, OK?
