Or I allowed myself to eat what I wanted, as long as it was healthy - so I ended up eating loads, but I broke the habit of eating crap, and then it was easier to cut down on the healthy foods. I actually gained weight at first because I was eating so much, but now I pretty much only eat fresh food (no processed food) and I feel much better for it.
My diet is terrible, but I wish people wouldn't talk about diet as if a good one is about removing unhealthy foods from your diet and filling it with healthy food: it's about balance and variety - and there's no such thing as healthy or unhealthy food, only healthy or unhealthy diets: and a healthy diet can include things like chocolate and burgers and chips as long as you don't have too much of them - perhaps give deep fried Mars bars a miss, though.
