HOW TO LOSE FAT

All good fat loss plans work on addressing the four following issues before reducing the amount of food you're eating.

(BMR)
Your basal metabolic rate is the amount of energy you burn to keep alive, it doesn’t really vary that much between similar individuals, maybe 5% each way. It does vary between people who are bigger/smaller and have higher/lower body fat %.
TIP - Gain muscle, and exercise with weights

(TEF)
This is the thermic effect of food. When you digest food it costs some energy. Whole foods cost more energy than processed foods and protein dense foods cost more energy than fats, carbs and alcohol.
TIP - Eat lots of protein, and skip on the junk food

(EA)
Exercise activity is the number of calories you burn while doing formal exercise. This can be over 1000 kcals per hour if you’re very fit and a big person.
TIP - Go to the gym, and concentrate on getting fitter. The more weight you can shift the more kcals you will burn.

(NEAT)
This is non-exercise activity thermogenesis and this a BIG ONE. This encompasses all the movement that we do throughout the day which isn’t formal exercise. Walking to work, using the stairs, fidgeting etc.
TIP - Track your daily steps and improve them if you stagnate
