I mean you can't target specific areas of your body to cut fat. just keep being in a caloric deficit. Add some cardio or increase your workout intensity. It really depends on how your body stores the fat.

Intermittent fasting and cardio.

You’re tall brother, 6’1 at 163? You’re a twig bro I’m 7 inches shorter and I’m at 155. I think your issue is your body fat percentage not your body weight, you need to recomp, lower your fat macros and raise the protein macros. No way to localize fat loss.

Yes

Get a bike, do some sort of circuit training

Download an app like loseit or myfitnesspal and start tracking your calories. It is kind of a crapshoot in that it won't be 100% accurate, just keeping track of what you eat will help you regulate your diet a lot more. Aim for a deficit and try to focus on nutrient-dense foods.

You said you cannot run, but there are other forms of cardio to help burn more calories. You could try jump-roping (i would use good running shoes/something with support to help with your flatfoot). Another way to get your HR up could be doing pull-ups in between sets when your squatting-- this will work your heart and help burn more calories. Even just walking while listening to music/podcasts could be sufficient. Others mentioned a bike, which could also work.

Be patient. Don't make excuses.

If you're not dropping body fat, the answer is pretty clear.

You're taking in more calories than you burn. Adjust your diet accordingly.

You need to gain more weight bro. I am skinny as fuck tbh and weight more than you while being way smaller.

I've also started doing an hour of a cardio playlist on beat saber for cardio during the quarantine but after a friend said I was wasting my time and that 10 min of a boxing VR game or whatever would be better so I've kind of stopped that

monitor your heart rate. ideally with a strap or a machine, but count manually if you have to. heart rate tells you how good your cardio is doing. not a medical pro so won't give you numbers, but you can find good information out there easily. heart rate is king for cardio.

Will I be able to lose localized fat ie. my gut entirely with healthy eating alone?

You cannot spot-reduce fat. You have the fat distribution you have and you can't change it, but you can change the overall fat quantity.

What would you recommend? I can't run due to an extreme case of flatfoot and quarantine.

find SOMETHING.

jogging on the spot, running up and down stairs, cycling, etc

You should really eat fatty meat instead of lean (grass-fed beef is the best, but others will do it fine too) and eat the yellow part of the eggs, as it’s the nutritionally more important one.

If you want to lose weight right, you should give up any kind of grain and legume and instead should base your energy supply on fat, effectively being in ketosis.

You could do a “classical” keto diet or straight up go full carnivore, which is despite what woke vegan propagandists and soccer moms will say to you, is the redpill of nutrition.

For reference I am not talking out of my ass, I too follow a fully carnivour diet and have never felt greater in my life.

If you are interested in it, there is a sub called zerocarb, where you can redpill yourself on nutrition the same way trp redpills you on intersexuals relations.

Carnivore diet.
