Which one to do?

Make this as easy to follow as you can. Doing a fad diet is fine if it works for you, but there's no magic behind any of them. You have to be at a caloric deficit. Walking is a great way to get started. As you become more fit, try adding in new things.

Those are not different alternatives. They're all things you could do all at the same time, and maybe would need to do all at the same time to succeed . . . but they're also not the only ways to succeed.

If you count calories, log your eating/exercise carefully, and stay within a sensible calorie goal (adjusting based on a few weeks' experience if needed), you'll lose weight, for sure. It can be doable, if you simultaneously pay attention to figuring out how to stay full, happy and energetic, so you can stick to it over the long haul.

Some people find that keto helps avoid cravings, so helps them stay full. If they can stay full enough on keto, that they eat fewer calories than they burn, they may not need to count calories at the same time. But it's also possible to gain weight eating keto, so some people need to count calories alongside keto, or they won't lose weight.

If you do a beachbody program and you don't eat more than currently, but do enough exercise that you burn more than you're eating, you'll lose weight. However, many people find that certain types of exercise make them hungrier, so maybe weight loss wouldn't be automatic. You might still have to count calories, if you want to lose weight. The beachbody program will probably make you fitter (though it's likely not the way to get the very fittest the very fastest), and being fit is a good thing.

If what you want is to lose weight, be fitter, and be healthy, what you need is to:

* Eat slightly fewer calories than you burn, over time, by any method (to lose weight);
* Get reasonable overall nutrition (for health); and
* Get some cardiovascular and strength exercise (to get fitter and be healthy).

Those 3 things will accomplish that. However you do those things: Keto/vegan/paleo/weight watchers/Noom/plain calorie counting/beachbody/other exercise programs/etc., or some combation, you'll lose weight, get fitter, and get healthier.

Personally, I'd suggest calorie counting; gradually remodeling your eating to move it in a more nutritious direction while meeting your calorie goal, with foods you enjoy that keep you feeling full and are practical for you; and doing some kind of exercise you personally find fun. Why? That's simple. Not always easy, but simple.

Best wishes!

Exactly what i was going to post. There are no short cuts.

I wasn’t asking for a short cut... I was just asking out those which one did people have success with and doable

The only way to lose weight is to take in fewer calories than your body uses.

How you do that (keto, exercise, vegan, Beachbody, Intermittent fasting, whatever) is irrelevant.

Eat less. Create a calorie deficit.

Honestly, you lose weight by eating less calories than you burn, but which one is more "doable" just depends on personal preference For instance, I cannot do keto, I need fruits and my vanilla latte in the morning to be happy. But I do count calories and try to stay under my sugar limit each day. Good luck with whatever you choose, you can do it!!
