Food is just like TV or cigarettes. It alleviates boredom. It gives us a good feeling to eat. We eat foods that are too dense with calories. Steak. Chicken. I'm not ready to try it myself, but I assume that it would be damn hard to get obese on a diet of steak and chicken. I made some changes to my diet recently though, not because of the need to lose weight, but rather trying to optimise it for health. I eliminated sugar from my diet, all grains, most of the starch. I try to get 60-70% of my calories from fats, mostly animal fats, 20-30% from proteins, rest from carbs - fresh fruit and vegetables. I eat 3 times a day strict, no snacks. I do not overeat, but I just eat till I'm not hungry. A lot of steak and chicken by the way. :) So far in the first 3 months I lost 6kg without even trying - went from 82kg to 76kg at 178cm height - and 6cm from the waistline.
