bingo for me too. I am trying to just “eat less”. I do a good job of exercise, but man do I always end up increasing the amount I eat. And i try things that while good ideas, I use as gimmicks that I give up on (intermittent fasting, macro dieting changes, etc.).
One thing I realize ilI do which sounds so stupid once I realized it, but I act like calorie count resets at midnight. So, if I do well under eating one day, I’ll think I can eat more the next day for breakfast or lunch or whenever. So, now I’m just committing to getting used to eating less. We shall see!

Intermittent fasting or even OMAD is what helped me a lot with this.
With OMAD, you can basically "eat as much as you want and whatever" but only as a single meal per day.
However, you can't eat that much in a single session and you definitely don't want to waste your only time to eat with unhealthy food, lol
Intermittent fasting is the lesser extreme. You only have 8 hours (or whatever schedule you want to go with) to eat so you naturally tend to eat less than if you have 24 hours and can eat whenever.

Curious how the hell do you avoid acid reflux at night on OMAD? Been doing IF for over a decade but have to keep from eating too much at night and certain foods otherwise it screws up my sleep bigtime. Sadly recall being able to eat whatever I wanted when I was younger...
