I see a lot of exercise reccomended ITT, but just remember that it takes an hour to "burn" 300 calories walking, but under a minute to eat a donut. Dieting is your battle. Also, doing a little exercise (5 min walk) everyday that you can keep yourself doing consistently is WAYY more important than the 2 hour gym sesh you hit twice then get demotivated and never do again

I go road cycling a lot. That burns more than 600 calories an hour. Just one 3 hour ride per week offsets almost as much calories as eating in one day does.
I ate less.
Shocking, I know.

Went vegan.
Lost 10kg, was pretty worried, got 8 back
I ate less
I started eating less and being more active. I went down to two meals a day and little to no snacking. One smaller meal in the late morning and one bigger in the late afternoon. Also started to commute by bike at least twice a week and go out hiking more often.
Weight goes down not too fast but at a steady pace.
