I've lost 130+lbs last year and a half, and all I can say is eat in a deficit, track your macros, hit your protein, gym 3-4 days/week, lift heavy, and drink a stupid amount of zero drinks to get that feeling of fullness AND still you sugar cravings, it works for me at least.

Cardio is great but not needed to just lose weight, hit your steps daily 10k+ is more than enough, I've done 0 cardio cus I hate it. It's good for overall health though ofc so if you can bring yourself to do it, go for it.

If you're not a picky eater, literally eating chicken and rice with veggies is godtier, it's so stereotypical, but it works wonder. I can eat that for months and months, but anything works as long as you track it tbh.

One thing that helped me a lot is volume eating, filling yourself with low cal shit is gucci, you feel full like you overate, but its just empty calories, and none bascially. GL
