Hard core calorie tracking. Calculate your TDEE maintenance and subtract 500; aim for around 1200-1400 calories a day high protein. Work out, don’t starve yourself and no “cheating”- whatever you eat or like to indulge in, make it fit your macros. So if you like to enjoy a donut or a glass of wine track it!! Do it through an app like noom or a group like WW or a FB support group like Calorie Deficit or Macros Inc or WHATEVER. It will come off!! Good luck!
And if it doesn’t and you have underlying metabolic issues like I did you can use the meds, I used them to lose 40 lbs and changed my life. For 10 I would exercise and track CICO. |

No sugar, alcohol, no processed carbs, 1500 calories a day with one cheat meal a week.
I have the weekly cheat meal if I'm away from my home like at a dinner party or birthday celebration, but allowing it is the key to my success since it allows me to plan and stay on the diet the rest of the week not just give up. |

Go back to your pre-holiday eating and fitness habits and the weight should come off without a "program."

| Lowered carbs and tracked using MFP. Stuck to 1200 calories a day and made sure to exercise at least 5 days a week. |

This is the most logical answer nobody wants to hear. Instead they want to count calories of garbage because they can't give it up. |

| I eat half my plate especially when I go out. It has trained my stomach to get full quicker. Lots of movement, which is harder in the winter unfortunately. Real food, nothing in a box or bag. |

Same. This always works. Low carb, 1200 cal tracking properly with my fitness Pal and regular exercise (but the exercise is to maintain muscle not to burn calories). Fwiw i am 5”6, currently 118 pounds and 44 yo. I do this each time I hit 120 pounds until I come back under 114-115 which I consider my max ideal weight for my frame (I have a slender frame). I usually need to do it for a month, twice a year. Always January and sometimes a couple more weeks in June or October. Rest of the year I eat a healthy Whole Foods diet, very limited processed food and I pay lots of attention to my hunger cues. So my weight doesn’t fluctuate that much (boundaries are 112 to 120). But I drink alcohol, eat chocolate, and will eat what I want in moderation. |

This. Dirty Keto works too. |

I lost 30 pounds on Weight Watchers and doing a half-assed type of intermittent fasting.
WW has you up your intake of fruit/vegetables/eggs/lean protein and it works. The app lets you scan bar codes to see how many points an item is. It's a hassle, but if you follow it, it works. And, it changed me eating habits for the better. |
