The only thing that worked for me was getting a personal trainer 3 times a week for strength training, and he would also weigh me every session. I would also go one or two times on my own to do some cardio (1 hour on the treadmill at 10% incline while watching tv shows: exactly 600 calories almost every time). Oh, and I drastically reduced my food consumption. The looming weigh-ins helped keep that up. I lost about 50lbs in 6 months and stayed there for a year+ until the pandemic hit and gyms closed down.
