Every successful fat loss method works because it helps someone eat fewer calories than they burn for long enough.
The challenge is that a calorie deficit is an outcome, not a behaviour.
The real question becomes:
What helps someone stay in a calorie deficit consistently?
For most people, the answer is:
Planning meals ahead of time
Prioritising protein
Managing hunger
Tracking food (at least for a period)
Keeping tempting foods out of sight
Walking more
Sleeping well
Having patience when progress slows
