Apologies if these have already been mentioned, but when I got back in shape, some strategies I employed:

No eating anything after a certain time (Rhett Warrener employs the 7-7 rule: no food between 7 PM - 7 AM). I would make lunch my biggest meal of the day. Then hit the gym after work, and have a light dinner. Going to bed not feeling stuffed helped me a lot. If you're hungry late in the evening, chug some water, kind of makes you feel full. The hardest is the first 3-4 days, but it's amazing how quickly your body adjusts to the new food schedule after even a few days.

Treating the gym (or whatever exercises you're doing) as an extension of the work day. Some days you really don't feel like going to work. Too bad, you go anyway, it's what you have to do. I carried this same mentality to the gym, eventually your body/mind adjusts to it and it's fine. I found my body even craved the gym out of routine on days I couldn't go. If you work out in the evening, I'd recommend going right after work before you get home, to keep this "extension of the work day" feel going. I found when I'd go home first, I'd lose the motivation.

Evening walks to work off dinner. Some ways I'd force this is by instead of doing a big weekend grocery run, I do little regular ones throughout the week, so there's always something I need to buy for the next day. Obviously this depends on your situation, and proximity to grocery stores (I live downtown so things are close, if you're in suburbia this may not be practical), but it works for me.

Taking the stairs instead of elevators. Again, depends how high up you're going: if you work or live on the 27th floor this isn't feasible. Maybe even just take the stairs up a few floors before transferring to the elevator?

Anyway just some random tips that helped me. Good luck everyone!
