How about...
1. Cardio, sweat your butt off!
2. Eat clean fresh fruit and veggies with every meal and snack
3. skip the high calorie drinks and enjoy a clod glass of water with some lemon or other fruit in it instead
4. get proper sleep so you have the energy to be more active, so you can burn more calories through out the day
5. The best exercise is the kind that doesnt feel like exercise. So sports, dancing, hikng etc.
So why did you ask us what works for us, if you are just going to say, Ya whatever you're boring!! When I started this I had no idea what a deficit was. but I did my homework and found out. I wanted a change and knew I had a lot to learn. Simple fact is, if you want to lose weight you need to eat in a deficit. I am a large person my exercises started at 15 min and when I felt stronger I added more time, I still can not do high impact workouts. So watching what I eat is very important. I have lost 39 lbs in 110 days pretty much on just what I eat. I do move everyday, somedays more than others but I really focus on my deficit. If someone really wants to make this lifestyle change they will do their homework and find what works best for them. I do agree with the 5 you posted, but don't belittle the people who are answering your question by saying Eat at a calorie deficit.
OMG that post was from the OP!
BAHAHAHAHAHA!
Hilarious. I didn't realise.

Can I have a sticker? Preferably a magical unicorn one?
I'm out of stickers. How 'bout a sparkle pooping rainbow unicorn cookie?
But, but, that's not plant based, is it? Or is the cookie made of magical plants?0 -

"Believe it or not, cows sometimes get sick! For example (just like people), sometimes they get pneumonia, and sometimes they get mastitis, a infection in the mammary glands of the cow. It’s always in our best interest at the dairy to prevent cows from getting ill, but it inevitably does happen."
BUT
"Furthermore when cows do come down with this illness, we move them out of the milking string to a separate “hospital” pen where they can receive treatment and rest. So this milk is doesn’t enter the bulk tank, or leave the dairy."0 -

I didn't say I was superior, that's your perception. I've eaten 2500 to 3000 calories and lost and maintained weight with minimal exercise. A lot of people aren't willing to do that, and at first I was scared to do it as well but if your only eating natural plant based foods, when it comes down to it, you don't have to have a calorie deficit.
I have a couple 250+ lb vegetarian/vegan friends who would heavily disagree with that statement.
YEP. Most of the vegetarians I know are fat. So are most of the people who are into ANY type of diet--low carb, whatever.
They fetishize food rather than eating a deficit. NEVER GONNA WORK.0 -
1. Make passionate love under a brilliant Peruvian sunset with someone you will never speak to again.
2. Scream into the void for exactly seven minutes, then follow with a fresh smoothie seasoned with your own tears.
3. Rotate your mattress in tune with the phases of the moon.
4. Drive a full size excavator directly into the middle of a naturally occurring lava sinkhole. Watch as it plummets, being received into the earth, like a gift.
5. Eat at a calorie deficit.
YMMV tho.0 -

Just because the are are vegan means there healthy. I'm talking about natural plant based foods...not from a package. If you eat foods such as fruit, veggies, nuts, and so on.
No. Fat doesn't care where it came from.

Quoting for incredulousness.
Read that as 'Quoting for ridiculousness'... works either way.
