There is no "fast" way to lose 40 pounds and keep it off. My suggestion would be to follow a lifestyle plan like the ones suggested by WeightWatchers (you dont have to join to live their lifestyle) They encourage lots of fruits and veggies, with a well rounded diet overall. The reason I suggest this is it is a lifestyle you can LIVE with. If you can't continue to eat healthy and an appropriate amount of calories, you'll never be able to maintain a weight you want.
There are tons of websites that will help you calculate how many calories you need per day. (Even though it is sort of complicated, I'd suggest the Harris Benedict equation-Google it) Make sure you multiply by your level of activity (probably somewhere around 1.2-1.4)
From this baseline amount it gives you subtract 500 calories. Eat this and you'll lose about a pound a week which a healthy and safe amount to lose. (Maybe more at first)
I'd also suggest beginning a physical activity program. That could mean getting off of the elevator a floor early and walking the last floor, parking a little bit farther away, doing a lap around the grocery store before you start your shopping, doing a little extra housework each week. It could also mean a walking/running program. You can do whatever activities fit your schedule and your lifestyle.
Try to get at least 30 minutes of activity in a day (this doesn't have to be all at once.) You can do quick 10 minute bursts (like taking a quick walk at lunch).
Increase your activity and muscles will increase the amount of calories you burn just by being awake!
