Spend a week religiously logging your food in MFP before you open your mouth to put it in! To the gram. On a scale. As accurately as your can. No you don't care that it's cold by the time you finished logging. Have an apple if you can't wait.

Measure your weight every day on a scale positioned at a constant unyielding spot on the floor after using the washroom and before eating or drinking and in other wise similar conditions record the results in a weight trend app

Are you losing 0.5% of your body weight per week? That's great. More than 1% week in week out? Eat a bit more. Less than 0.5lbs a week? Lower your calories a bit

Find what foods satiate you for the least Calories and make good use of them. Make sure you eat a good 120+g of protein (assuming a goal weight in the 160s), some healthy fats, 5, heck make it 8+ 85g portions of veggies and fruits a day, a good 30+ grams of fiber, throw in a half to one hour of moderate (a fast walk will do) activity a day, a couple or more of strength training sessions a week and avoid sitting on your bum many consecutive hours without moving and before you know it Bob's your uncle and you will be scampering around the maintenance forum in a year or two having lost a small person and feeling like a million bucks before inflation!😎
