To lose only 10 pounds? Easy, eat only meat, fruit, and vegetables. Sample menu:
Breakfast:
2 eggs any style
8 oz. OJ
Midmorining Snack
Apple or Berries (Black, Blue, Rasp, Straw, or Grapes)
Lunch
Meat
Salad -OR- Steamed/Stir Fried vegetables
Mid Afternoon Snack
Almonds or your favorite nut
Dinner
Same as Lunch
Play with the snacks as you please. For instance have the nuts in the morning and the fruit in the afternoon. Or you could have nuts at both or fruit at both. I wouldn't worry to much about the "typical" drawbacks to this "diet" setup if you are only losing 10 pounds. Good luck.

OK big brock
to lose weight the most important factor is calories
You need to eat less calories than you're burning a day to burn the fat
You need to calculate ur calories (pm me your age and sex and i'll plug the numbers for u)
as for what to eat
i've said this before on another thread so im just gonna cut and paste if thats ok
a good diet is usually what works for you
a general concencus of what a good diet differs depending on your goals.
For cutting a good diet would be:
- to eat smaller frequent meals 5-6 times a day
- eat at or less than your TDEE
- Consume about 1.5g of protein per lbm
- Eat carbs moderately or limit them
- Consume good clean fats such as fish oils, olive oil or flax
- Lots of veggies
- Drink PLENTY of water
- Restrict sugars and processed carbs and Hi or even moderate glycemic carbs (except for post workout when you want an insulin spike)
Here's what my diet looks like and it's pretty much worked for me. This is just a guide, it might or might not work for u and you have to adjust the calories accordingly
(p/c/f)
1. Oatmeal + whey protein x 2 scoops (40/40/5)
2. whey protein x w scoops + efas (40/5/15)
3. Grilled Salmon + 1 cup veggies (30/10/20)
4. same as 1 (40/40/5
5. Post Workout Shake (25/50/0)
6. Lean protein + veggies + 1 tsp flax (35/10/10)

The typical "drawbacks" that people argue about (really aren't any drawbacks) are reduced fiber intake, and possibly lowered micronutrient intake. It just ain't there. Your micronutrients (vitamin and minerals) will stay the same at least and most likely go up. If you eat all that is there pertaining to fruit, vegetables and the nuts, you'll have plenty of fiber. There has also been comments about the sugar in the fruits having a negative effect on fat loss. That may be true if the grains and dairy are in it, but not when eaten this way. So they ain't there.
While trying to lose fat on this, try to keep your protein intake at least .8 grams per pound of Lean Body Mass with 1-1.25 being better. Get in the fruit and vegetables and nuts like what was listed and in a month (maybe less depending how your metabolism is) you should be set.
You could possibly gain fat when you bulk (and most likely will), but it ain't anything to fret about it much. You won't gain it back at any faster rate than with any other "cutting" diet.
One last thing, don't neglect fat intake. Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Walnuts, Fish Oil, and Flaxseed Oil is what you wanna get. If you have some Salmon for lunch or Dinner, than you should be all set. Get some walnuts and Olive Oil based Salad dressing to dress the Salad and/or vegetables and everything is done. No need for "expensive" supplements.
