A serious weight loss question (that doesnt involve fad diets)?

Alright … Another weight loss question lol

I’m 5′o exactly and I weigh about 16o
I was at the doctor the other day and we were talking about my weight ..
For my height and age i’m supposed to weigh about 9o – 115 pounds ,
but my doctor doesn’t want me to go below 13o lbs because of health reasons …
I mean, no offense i’m a 42 DD (and it’s not because i’m overweight) …
im not exactly gonna go down to 11o and look normal, lol
But main thing is I gained about 2o pounds in one year, mostly because of a medicine that i’m taking (it can cause weight gain my doctor said)
Pretty much all my fat is in my stomach and a little bit on my legs ..

I’m looking to lose about 2o pounds, because overall I like my body type and i’m comfortable with
the way I look … I just want to lose the weight for health reasons (and ok … the small stomach idea isnt too bad lol)
but I understand i’m not gonna be one of those girls with super tiny legs and a 24 inch waist (nor would i want to be)

But i was thinking about starting my diet off with a colon cleanse (for one week – no longer, im too young)
and then cutting calories down by cutting out prossesed foods …
pretty much just eating fruits, veggies, salads, lean meat (like chicken)
lots of water … no sodas or sugary drinks

+ maybe 2o – 3o minuets of exercise everyday + strength training 3x week
( lol basic i know )

im pretty determined .. and i have strong will power, so this is pretty do-able for me

main question is … do you think that this is a healthy way to lose the weight ?
is there anything else i can do (minus fad diets or pills – not intrested in ruining my body) to help ?
and do you think i can drop the 2o in about 6 – 8 weeks ?
