Just don't eat crap, drink water and you're almost done. 80% is almost always the food.

It should be common knowledge at this point.
1) Cardio, and lots of it. Running/Jogging for at least 30-45 mins (preferably first thing in the morning prior to breakfast).
2) Drink - only water, and lots of it.
3) Eat - lots of lean meats/fish with plenty of vegetables. My main diet mostly consists of chicken breast or ahi tuna/halibut steaks. I always pair that with brown rice and broccoli (or baby carrots). For breakfast: oatmeal is king, period. For snacks: cashews/unsalted almonds, yogurt/cottage cheese and beef jerky. Try to avoid too many fruits (glucose, fructose and sucrose are still sugars).
4) Don't have an erratic sleep schedule and always get plenty of rest (8-9 hrs is ideal).
You can do 1, 2 and 3 all you want but if you're not sleeping properly, it's extremely counterproductive and generally a big waste of your time. Have a strict routine, follow it, love it, and you'll see results.

Brilliant contribution...
I played semi-professional football for nearly a decade and always consulted with dietitians and sports scientists. Trust me, you can read all the books/articles in the world and it's not going to change anything if you're not motivated. The advise given in this thread is sound (for the most part).
Because reinforcing when someone says the one you adhere to is what will work is bad advice. Right. Besides the fact they're proven experts in their field, as they constantly challenge the status quo of the industry and are always running numerous studies, if I find a "diet" I'll adhere to it will motivate me more to follow it. More knowledge has never hurt and by looking at your previous post advocating "LOTS of cardio", when it's been shown that resistance/strength training supplemented with a combination of SS and HIIT cardio is far better than just "lots of cardio" (I thought THAT was common knowledge, but I guess you missed the memo). Not to mention the fact that being in a caloric deficit from your maintenance calories is the crux of losing weight (likewise being in a surplus is how you gain..duh). The question people need to ask is do they want to "lose weight" or "lose fat." I find it's more often the latter while building or maintaining muscle mass, but you're the past semi-professional footballer and I'm just some guy posting on a gaming site so what do I know
1) Deficit, water, sleep, lift then cardio
2) ????
3) Profit
I've been doing Joe DeFranco's Rebuilt program which is a strength and bodybuilding program with HIIT/LISS cardio on off days. I've been following the format of the diet and supplement plan that came with it and I am sort of shocked at the results that I'm seeing. I never thought I could lose fat while putting on muscle and I've done it while eating 5 times a day at a small caloric deficit.
Play wow, get angry and don't eat. Ahhahhahah
I never get fat by doing this. Even after everyday McDonald's. Just kidding.
Edit: delete please
eat less you fatty
I personally had great success with intermittent fasting and smaller more frequent meals.
Working out and walking more played a bigger part in my weight loss story.
Bro tbh i do believe its mostly genetic driven drive.
And that consists of sport, energy etc. Dont sweat it. I used to be fat then became skinny now ive gained weight again.
I think you need certain emotions that motivate you.
It's very individual in fact because there are so many methods of losing weight now and not all of them is good for everybody, that's why it's hard to say which certain ones are totally the best
I can share only with some methods which were effective in my case. They were following a low-carb diet, stopping skipping breakfast (because in this case you feel even more hungry and eat more during the day), adding proteins in my daily meals and snacks, stopping to eat at nights and before sleeping (it's bad for stomach's health too). I started to avoid beer and junk food too, and added more fruits and vegetables instead of meat in my daily menu https://www.ndtv.com/food/weight-los...ly-fat-1885607.
I made my basic fitness complex reguraly and tried to run in mornings several times a week, in this case it's very important to find such physical activity which is the most effective for you, in my case a professional trainer helped me really much. Sleeping enough and having rext for balancing your other activities is a necessary thing too because when you're very stressed losing weight becomes even more complicated.
In some cases hormonal therapy https://www.nexelmedical.com/hgh-injections can be a necessary thing in addition too because many people become overweighted as an aftermarth of their hormonal imbalance and losing weight in a natural way isn't enough effective with such health problems.
Drink water (especially before meals) You can not stop repeating it, you have to drink a lot of water.
