Unfortunately, I waited until I was obese to start any of this, so I'm not seeing the physical effects as far I would like. However, I'm down about 10 pounds for the year. While not great, it's better than the trend up in the last few years.
Workout at the city gym about 4 times a week. Currently doing a PPL routine with 4 x 8-10 (sets x reps)
I do https://stronglifts.com/5x5/ but I do 75% of weight of my max so I can train everyday. I mix in running or rowing to finish off the workout.
4/days a week, 531 Boring But Big. This week I start adding in Couch25k. And one or two days a week, I like to do kettlebell swings or barbell complexes for some conditioning work.

Seems like a lot of effort without much improvement. Have you considered counting calories in addition to the work you are doing?
Weekends I usually take one day off and do some multi-hour activity on the other day. Hiking, snowshoeing, kayaking, that sort of thing.
