This. Keep track of all calories and keep to a target. Managed to lose a good chunk of weight in six months like that without exercising like crazy, or doing any weird diets.
I used MyFitnessPal to track my calories. A nice feature in that particular app was that it has various integrations to other fitness apps, so if you move a lot during the day, it'll bump up your calorie target for the day.
Another advantage of tracking calories religiously is that you'll start to understand which foods have crazy amount of calories. Like, burn-your-entire-intake-for-the-day amount of calories.
