Welcome @jain1044, I eat a lot less red meat now but can't do the vegetarian diet. I've found that the duration and eating window has helped me maintain my weight range for a couple of years now. I normally switch between a 16, 18, or 20 hour fasting period depending how I did on the scale in the morning. I use the Zero app on my phone which makes it extremely easy to keep track of my fasting target - https://zerolongevity.com/.

Have you tried intermmittent fasting?
