    Keep it simple

    Just eat less calories than you burn, don't cut out the foods you like just eat less of them to fit them in.

    My advice would be to acknowledge where you're more likely to cheat and plan your day accordingly!
    For example, I tend to binge at night - and so to counter this, I like to save a lot of my calories for dinner time and eat less in the earlier parts of the day. I also do way better on days I've pre-logged all my food.

    Find what work for you and good luck!

    I log all my food for breakfast, lunch and any snacks. That gives me a delta for dinner. If I somehow got in some extracurricular eating in during the day I know its going to be a light dinner. I find this helps a lot knowing what I have left going into the evening.

    Go online find out what your macros are, plug them into the section under goals and try to hit those macros everyday. I like to plan what I'm going to be eating the next day the night before. That way I can play around with food and change up what I eat occasionally.

    Eat healthy ... no junk food. Prepping meals ahead of time do help. And oh the fun word ... Exercise finding something you enjoy doing, weight lifting, swimming, elliptical, running etc. Last drink lots of water!! Get lots of sleep!!
