When I decide to cut, I usually lower carbs and cut out added sugars. No cookies cupcakes, candy, ice cream etc. Typical meal schedule for a few week cut would be eggs and coffee for breakfast, protein shake or peanut butter apple for lunch, and dinner would be something like Chicken, brown rice, and milk. Fruit and Veggies added in there for snacks. I'm pretty lean so this would be when I want to cut the extra 5lbs or so in the Summer. If you are looking to lose more weight just focus on keeping sugars to a minimum, and add in minor lifting, yoga, or running into a routine you can follow. I'm a long distance runner but I have friends that swear by Hiit High intensity interval training. As far as ab workouts planks and hanging leg raises work best, but of course you need to keep the fat fairly low to show it.
