    Measured everything I ate and put it into a calorie counter app. Ate whatever I wanted, but if I wanted to eat (or drink) it, I had to measure it and put it in the app.

    I tried not to go over the recommended calorie amount, and if I did, I did some exercise that the app would put me under the calorie amount for the day.

    I had it set to the slowest weight loss amount (something like 0.5lbs per week?), but lost weight faster than that.

    It helped me improve my diet, get a better understanding of what I was eating, helped me get better in tune with my “fullness”, and got me drinking more water.
