Your present BMI (body mass index) is 24.22. When you loose 8 to kg you will have 61 kg and your BMI will be 21.1 which is close to the lower limit. The kind of diet that would be best for you depends on your current health condition and eating, working and sleeping habits. Taking blood for basic laboratory tests in order to determine your current health condition is recommendable.
You might want to consult with nutritionist about the most effective and most suitable diet for you according to the data from the laboratory results and your habits and needs.
