Not OP, but I'm on one and wouldn't recommend it for 20lb loss (bad side effects are possible if not likely, and people gain the weight back when they go off the med). But it's a free country...

I get protein and fiber from beans. .

I’m a teacher who tends to gain a few pounds every school year. Lots of birthday treats, potluck lunches, etc. I finished school on June 16th. I started fasting for 16 hrs each day (dinner by 6pm and nothing else until 10am). I had two meals a day at 10am and then dinner. No snacks. More protein and fat and fewer carbs. I went from 126 on 6/16 to 120 today (I was weighed today at a doctor’s appointment). That’s it. I work out 2-3 times a week at the gym and most days get 8k steps but rarely more.

I walk 10k steps and day and attend a barre class 3-4 times a week. Weight isn’t moving, my diet is fairly healthy, yogurt, salad regular dinner.

Less carbs. No fruit or juice or sodas or breads etc.
More meat and dairy.
Figure out your daily caloric needs and then exercise/eat to where you are at a bout a 200 calorie deficit.
Exercise more.
That's all.

Add protein and strength training.

I would totally recommend it. I lost 10 pounds effortlessly with no side effects and now I take it once a month just to stay on track. I’m so annoyed that I was scared to try it and spent years trying to lose that last spare tire around my waist!

Also look at satiating foods. Potatoes, beans, oatmeal, etc.

GLP is the only answer. No other tips will work.

+1. At this point the ones who aren't on a GLP stick out like sore thumbs, because they are the only ones who are fat.

58 female here, and nothing worked consistently until I did the following (lost 15 lbs in a year):
--focus on protein. For me eggs, chicken and fish are my main source. I keep hard boiled eggs and tunafish ready with lots of lettuce, cucumbers, Wasa crackers.
--no snacking at all. I learned to drink iced green tea or water or an occasional diet gatorade. I learned to be really hungry before a meal.
--eat most of my calories at breakfast and lunch, make sure dinner is the smallest meal and eat nothing after. It is hard but really is my key to weightloss. I focussed on making brothy soups with something filling like lentils or barley and vegetables in them. Lots of salt and seasoning for flavor. I keep individual servings in the freezer so I can have my own dinner when cooking something else for my family.
--one cheat meal a week, always something social, so I felt I could keep on this long term.
Good luck!

Agree. 62 and lost 17 pounds this year; 40 in total over past couple of years. My Fitness Pal works for me, plus weightlifting. I can’t cheat - it sets me off on overeating.

Wrong and not worth the health risk.

I also just have coffee at breakfast and then eat a 1/2 sandwich at 2 pm, then a normal healthy dinner and a snack before bed if needed. It’s surprising how much less I eat now and feel fine. I overate so much before, no wonder I was overweight. Until you actually come close to passing out from starvation and exercise, you probably are massively overeating.

+1. This works but a 8 hr eating window is tough to do for many.

In your disordered minds? Lol It’s like the dysfigured Mar-Lago/Real housewives that think the blown up lios and weird frozen filler face is attractive.

There are 3 50-somethings on my street that look like they were in a hunger camp now. Really brittle looking. Saggy yoga pants. So, sure, a healthy size 4/6 looks fat to them.
