I'm 53 and I always found a mixture of strength training and run/walks worked best to quickly drop weight. You don't have to change your meals, but eating leaner and more protein helps with the weight loss. Just remember to start slow and slowly ramp up the routine, and most importantly take days off to get your body to recover properly.
I don't understand the need for a Fitbit or anything like it. You know if you are overeating or eating junk to much without really needing something fairly inaccurate to tell you what you have burned off.

But I would love to be able to wear my Rolex again.
rumor is garmin will be releasing a screenless band like the whoop.
there is also the fitbit air and the helios strap, both are screenless so you could wear them on your right wrist. the helios does have a bicep strap if you'd prefer that, it would be out the way and not deter looks from your rolex.

Yes, there is a point in life where we cannot add muscle and what we have at that point needs to last us the rest of their life but research has started to prove that a higher V02 max is tied more directly to a longer and healthier life than muscle mass.
I think both are definitely important and for myself, I usually heavily prioritize cardio in the summer, fall and early winter and then once the time changes and it gets colder (and closer to ski season) more prioritize strength training.
I respectfully disagree with this. I'm 58 and have put on a significant amount of muscle. Your quads are your fatburners. Resistance training increases the size of your fatburners.
VO2 max while good, isn't living up to the claims of being the elixer of long life, muscle mass is. Besides a high VO2 max with muscle mass is the most healthy. Muscle assists your heart moving blood through your body, your calves are called your "second heart" for a reason.

I use the RP app.
Timed meals: macros & cals, around your day & workout.
I'm on an 8 week plan and my daily caloric intake is 2500-2700 with high protein, low fat and an average number of carbs.
My carb macro is a pain to hit so I don't even try if I'm good on the others.

My pedometer app on iPhone is just as accurate at my FitBit.
