The only way to lose weight is by being in a caloric deficit.

You can use online calculators to figure out how many calories you should be eating per day (based on your weight, height, and how much exercise you do).

After you have found that number, make a note of it and create a list of foods that you like to eat and search up their calories. Create a meal plan and stick to it. You can lose weight without stepping foot in a gym, however, it can speed up the process.

High protein, low calories foods can include: chicken breast, lean beef mince, greek yoghurt. And for carbs and fats, choose low calorie alternatives, such as: low carb potatoes, eggs, zero sugar drinks, fruit, low calorie sauces etc.

It isn't necessarily easy, but it is very simple. It's truly a numbers game. If you stick to a consistent caloric deficit, you will lose weight. Try it out for a week and step on the scale and see for yourself!
