Does he have one of those hamster wheels he can use to excersize on? You could also take him out once in a while and let him run around in a controlled area, that is if he is a friendly hamster. Keep him on a regular diet, feed him the same portion each day.

Give him less fatty food and more healthy greens and give him more chances to exercise like get a ball to put the hamster in so he can run around. It may look like he eats the whole bowl, but he actually, probably stashes some of it somewhere, for a snack to eat later, so try giving him a little less food each day so it's not like out of nowhere he only has half of the food he's used to.

give him a wheel to run on to, and be very careful of how much food you feed him.
Is he fat or is he just hoarding (gathering food in his mouth)?
give him good food such as hamster food
Once in a while give him fruit example(a SMALL piece of apple, banana) and avoid lettuce

There are no special diet variants however your best bet is to cut down the amount you are feeding it and later on cut his meals to only 2 meals every 2 days.

You don't have to starve him, just feed him less. put in half a bowl of food, or use a smaller bowl.

Giving him less food if it is the amount that he needs isn't starving him. He'll probably be happier when he is not so fat.
