I lost 35lbs recently—surpassing my goal. I tracked every calorie I consumed and used an Apple Watch to be sure I was hitting my calorie deficit goals. However if I were doing it again today, I would follow some simple rules: cut anything I was planning on eating in half, then substitute with as much salad and fruit as I want. You can reduce calories in dressing by adding acids to it (pickle liquid, etc.). Easy to remember, really effective.
