Easy win: No sugary drinks. Juice is as unhealthy as coke. If you want something with flavor, drink tea (without sugar).
For most people, it's to understand this: Carbohydrates make you gain weight. Not the fat in food.
Somewhat hard to implement, but with significant results: Cut sugar entirely from your diet. This automatically results in much healthier eating, because you have to check ingredients on everything this way.

I would recommend something like the slow carb diet (Tim Ferriss), but anything that restrict your intake of calories and that you feel you can sustain over a long period of time is good.
It works every time, it is just hard to keep up with if you aren't motivated. I know it works though, it help me shred 25kg.
