Cutting snacking, calorie dense foods, and counting caloiries.
Calories in/calories out is the only thing that works long term. You dont go on a diet, you change how you eat permanently.
I keep bread in the freezer so i dont snack on it. I only have a small desert. Measure portions until you have a good eye for it, etc.
Working out to burn calories is unsustainable for the majority of people.
Stop drinking soda and alcohol at random. They are loaded with empty calories. You can easily drink 600-1000 calories a day with soda if you have a couple of glasses with meals and snacks.
