Even just designing your lifestyle to include movement makes a huge difference. I commuted by bike for years - 11 miles a day, every day, and basically maintained my weight despite eating or drinking whatever I liked. The pandemic put an end to that and my weight has been creeping up year on year since. It didn't really feel like exercise, just a way of travelling.
Similarly - walk everywhere. Choose to live somewhere you can walk to the shops and then take advantage of that. I read a study a few years ago that showed that people living in UK cities walk more than twice the distance each year of those living in suburban or rural locations. You definitely wouldn't know there was an obesity epidemic in my country looking at the people in my neighborhood. Half of them don't own a car.
