12 years ago I lost around 30kg/4.5 stone in weight and then kept it off ever since. One of the most effective, yet small changes I made was cutting out snacking between meals. Crisps, biscuits, cakes etc were all vetoed unless it was an celebratory event, e.g. visiting friends, birthday party etc. I also stopped drinking hi-juice squash and started taking coffee black. Alone those items probably removed 150-700 calories per day out of my diet.

After shedding the first 20kg, I dropped another 10kg when I quit drinking.
I need to get back to properly controlling things, but for quite some time I had a "no sweets/treats during the week" rule and that worked well. I've also cut back on cheese (more to do with cholesterol) and that too made a difference.
Life without cheese wouldn't be grate

SMELL MY CHEESE YOU MOTHER :lol:

True. But cutting back was necessary.
