Take Responsibility
More often than not we blame our parents, genes, social circle, the celebrations and everything else for our weight gain. It is time you take responsibility for your own actions. Use the apps available on your smart phone or just a small diary to keep track of your calories. Get a supportive group of friends or relatives who will cheer and support you and hold you accountable. If you don't have such people around you can find that they are many online support groups with total strangers supporting and cheering each other. These folks build you up and keep you motivated even when you want to quit. The whole process of losing weight is long and arduous. You need all the support you can get. Intermittent fasting is another method you can gain control over your eating habits. The fast is tough initially but over time you learn to ignore the constant need to eat something. Aim to lose about 1-2 pounds per week. While it is tempting to lose more, it is not feasible in the long run, second you lose bone, muscle and water weight which is not what you want in this weight loss journey.

Learn About Yourself
What makes you crave food? What are your triggers? Why do you want to eat? It is time to learn about yourself and your eating habits. Some people react to stress, others to anger, some for comfort, others eat due to boredom. Some eat when they are eat or depressed. If emotions are driving you, learn to channel them elsewhere. Pick up some good habit like painting or listening to music or reading or going for a walk, when these emotions hit you. Another reason folks eat is due to life long conditioning of not wasting food, not leaving anything on the plate. If that is problem cook a little less, serve yourself smaller portions, store away remaining food in the fridge for next meal. When you are offered free food or pay for "eat as much as you can buffet" - control your impulses and eat just what you need. There is no need to justify the price. Think that you are paying for the ambience or the experience. Not for the food.
