So you’re saying your wife seems to like you skinnier? That should be decent enough motivation to eat less.

Or better yet, after dinner. Eat dinner and be done for the day.

Maybe start with intermittent fasting. Do something like an 18/6 schedule- wait until noon to eat, dinner at 6, and fast

OMAD (One Meal A Day) has done wonders for me over the past 6-7 years.

Eliminate snacks. If you drink carbonated drinks, stop.

Try the glp-1s. I think they are amazing drugs. If you don't like them then quit, but if you can afford them I don't

I dont think I’d go to glp-1 to lose 10. Save those for people who need to lose 30+. I’d worry most of the 10lbs lost

I think that’s what the studies show. People on it don’t eat enough protein to maintain muscle

I'd only add that once you lose a little weight you need to recalculate
