Honestly I don't think the picture shows enough detail to tell whether you have a fat problem or not. All I can tell is you're white. I can't even tell what your age could be. So I'm just staying on topic here, not an insult:

If you do want to lose weight the best place to start is with:

Step 1: Almost totally eliminating sugar.

Start by knocking out processed sugars. Initially increase fruit intake to satiate sugar cravings. After a month or so of this reduce the natural sugar intake from fruit/honey/etc. until it is totally out of your diet in about a week (if you eat meat and eggs the vitamin and mineral content in those meals already exceed any benefit you'll get from fruit). You will have sugar cravings. You will start to recognize the scent of sugar much more than you used to and it will feel like a second hunger that can only be satiated by eating sugar. This effect will worsen over the course of a week or two, but then lessen into non-existence after another week or so. When you no longer feel the need to eat sugar wait another month before occasionally reintroducing fruit and maybe flavoring tea with a small amount of honey. Avoid processed sugar whenever possible forever. End of story. Sugar generally fucks everything up no matter how religiously you follow a diet with a cherry on top when sugar consists of greater than ~5% of your caloric intake.

P.S.: If you need sweets then eat food flavored with splenda, erythritol, monk fruit extract, or stevia leaf. You won't be able to tell it's not sugar.

Step 2: Gradually start changing your dietary intake over time (specifically meal timing and a reduction in carb consumption).

This way it's not a change in diet, but instead a permanent change in your eating habits. Start this by eating most of the same foods you normally do (after step 1), but separate meals such that all carbohydrate rich foods are eaten no sooner than a couple hours after lunch. The meal(s) prior to the carbs should consist almost totally of fat and protein with very few to no carbs (I'm talking no more than to 15g-20g carbs at first before you eventually eat your carb heavy meal later in the day).

P.S.: Ignore everything that says saturated fat is bad. It's lobbied and over-politicized BS pushed by guidelines developed from farmers and food processors that wanted to replace traditional fats with vegetable derived and processed fats since they are cheaper to make per calorie. Here's the logic: don't push all the savings off to consumers to increase gross margins. You can find multitudes of cardiologists that argue against world guidelines against saturated fats. These cardiologists say saturated fats are less prone to oxidation in your body when combined with low carbohydrate intake (one of a few primary contributors to chronic inflammation is oxidative stress, which in turn is one of the main driving factors in the congestion of your arteries) and therefore reduce cardiovascular risk.

Many more steps mostly include the gradual elimination of carbs until intake is between 3-8% of your diet daily (~5% or less daily average). As carb levels begin to drop below 60g daily you need to start adding in foods that will help maintain your gut health (like asparagus, bone broth, apple cider vinegar, pickled foods in general, kimchi, full fat greek yogurt with no sugar added).

Anyways, that's an introduction. I did exactly this and worked in a few changes every few weeks since June of last summer and have subsequently lost 47 lbs in the 14 months since then. No change in calorie intake whatsoever. Exercise frequency and intensity did not change either. I have had no serious diseases or accidents to cause a sudden loss in weight. This outline, once understood, is actually pretty easy to follow with one exception: breaking sugar. The hardest part was easily the start with eliminating sugar.
