Stay away from foods that are not your favorite, or at least for a while. Buying foods that you enjoy more could make you eat more than an average portion. I am trying to lose weight, and I know if I even buy my favorite cereal I could possibly overeat. For instance-I enjoy eating ‘Cinnamon Life’ cereal in the mornings. I would tend to eat a second helping at times. Now, I buy granola cereals, or Cheerios etc. I enjoy these cereals, just not as much as the ‘Life’ cereals. Now, I have found out I can buy Life cereals at times, and I will not over-eat it. Once you can say you can eat your favorite foods in moderation, then ENJOY.
Trying to find a balance when you are dieting can be a challenge, but it just takes willpower, and by using this idea I am doing it.
Good luck if you are dieting. Maybe don’t even call it dieting, call it eating right.

Thank you Muhammad for sharing your thoughts. Cinnamon Life is a great cereal!
Balance makes so much sense in all sorts of ways in life.
Thank you Ghostwriter, and yes balance does make good sense.
Everything in moderation is what I always say. Good luck.
Thank you Carol for this helpful information.
I agree with your approach, but my problem is increasing my weight because no matter how much I eat, my weight is difficult to increase.
Eat more milk and cheeses.In our country people can buy drinks high in fat and vitamins that have been known to increase weight.
Did you know that I have to eat 1 kg to mean weight gain of 1 kg?
I’ve tried similar things in the past, they’re only good for around ten pounds…
Thank you Alex for this interesting thought lol.
Thank you mommyofEli2013 for commenting.
That’s a very interesting idea….I wouldn’t have thought of doing that!
