1. Focus on getting strong and building muscle
Don't focus on losing fat
Lifting weights will do wonders for your body composition
Aim for 3-4 workouts a week
Split:
Day 1: full body
Day 2: rest
Day 3 full body
Day 4: rest
Day 5: rest
Day 6: full body
Day 7: rest

2. Don't waste money on supplements
Fat burners do nothing
BCAAs are minimally effective
Whey protein can help, but try to get your protein through natural means
Supplement companies just want your money
They make you believe that supplements will do all the work for you

3. Eat in a small deficit
2-400 calories is a good range
More than that and you'll feel sluggish and weak
You can do this simply by drinking more water and less of other drinks that have calories
(Drinking your calories adds up quick)

4. Enjoy your favorite foods
In moderation
Never completely cut something out of your diet if you enjoy it
The craving will become too strong and you'll end up binging
A healthy relationship with food is knowing you can eat what you want without overindulging

5. You can kill your cravings with 0 calorie drinks and low calorie snacks as easily as you can with a cookie
Sugar free jello, diet soda, Greek yogurt, fruit, dark chocolate, popcorn(not too much extra salt or butter), and oatmeal are great options to curb your craving

6. Don't do abs
It only strengthens your core, it does nothing to get rid of fat
Rather, do more higher intensity compound movements
This will decrease your workout time and provide a more full body effect
Ex: squat, power clean, Barbell row, military press, dradlift

Walk on the treadmill and watch your favorite show
