Calorie counting isn't that hard, and it's not really necessary to weigh your food or be precise. I've done it successfully for a few months. I think the trick is to do it for some time until you relearn certain habits. Like to take two slices of bread instead of three or four, or to not snack on nuts which are high in calories. And for me, to avoid beer. So it's more about becoming aware of how many calories certain foods have, and remember which ones to avoid most of the time.
