Salami + chocolate is probably a dud, but fries and chocolate? Give it to me! Or maybe not, I'm trying to lose weight.

Even fries... Well, fries sounds alright, I guess it also depends on the fries.

Good luck on your weight loss!! I lost about 25 kg myself, relatively recently. You can do it!!!!

Man, it's not even that bad, but I've been trying to watch my calourie intake for months without success. Losing weight without any outside assistance is fucking hard ...

A trick I used was to eat only a certain volume. I had this very reasonably-sized bowl and I'd fill it to the brim (exactly) with food and that would be my lunch for the day. I also always had the same breakfast: a mug of chocolate milk and an apple.

I cut out all snacks and such, and just tried to eat reasonably healthy foods like rice and tuna, and mashed potatoes with veggies, just random stuff that wasn't chips and gummies.

Yeah, it's hard, but you can definitely do it! If you need help and don't have anybody close willing and able to guide you, maybe you could look at getting a nutritionist? Not sure how available that is...
