If you want to keep the weight off you wnt to exercise and continue to exercise for life.
I had a successful diet once. I never exercised though, and when I broke the diet I broke big time. Was no exercise my downfall? Not completely, but it didn't help cause I didnt change my bad habits and that was one of them.

I haven't broke this out in a while...
Proper nutrition AND exercise (cardio AND resistance training) work in synergy.
Good nutrition = A
Resistance training = B
Cardio = C
Total Health and Good Physique = D
A+B+C=D
Take A, B, or C out of the equation and you are operating sub-optimally and giving up unique benefits associated only with the dropped variable.
Can you lose weight without lifting weights?
Certainly. Losing weight is a function of being in a chronic/consistent energy deficit, meaning, more calories out than in. This deficit can be established however you see fit.... less food, more activity, a combo, etc.
Will you look good only eating less without exercising?
Probably not, unless you are genetically blessed. And if you were, you probably wouldn't be here.
If the number on the scale was all that mattered, this would be a VERY simple process. Unfortunately for some, total health and appearance matter more than the scale and those things require a balanced approach.
Not to mention.... being strong is rewarding.

In order to lose weight all you need is a calorie defecit, but exercising is very important for your overall health, it helps your metabolism as well as keeps you fit and active. I would highly suggest exercising and diet to aid in weightloss!
