I'm about 20 years old. I am pretty happy with my weight. Most people would love to be what I weigh, but since I'm under five feet, I feel a little on the heavy side. I would be happy just ten lbs. less, but somehow I just can't take off those lbs. I eat moderately and exercise daily, but nothing changes. Any advice on how to quickly and easily shed those lbs?

I can definitely help. First and foremost, you have to have a clean diet. Without a proper diet, you will have a hard time losing weight. Diet makes up roughly 90% of the battle. Don't be that person at the gym who busts their tail off yet allows the hard work to go down the drain b/c they eat like crap.
That being said, what foods to eat?
Stick to a more lean protein/green veggie diet. Lean protein sources include chicken breast, turkey breast, fish, egg whites, lean beef such as sirloin, cottage cheese etc. The majority of your carbs should come from leafy greens such as asparagus, broccoli, kale, salad etc. Green veggies are very low in carb, full of fiber and are slower digesting.
Stay away from refined carbs. Refined carbs are your white breads, white pasta etc. Eat whole grains but in moderation such as brown rice. Even though brown rice is superior to white rice, you still need to monitor your carbs so have these grains more on workout days for energy and adjust accordingly.
Workout wise, a combination of free weights and cardio 3-4 times a week is optimal. Weight lifting helps burn more calories at rest.
