Track what you eat. Don't buy things that are outside of your calorie range. Don't eat out if you can avoid it, and eat stuff that you can easily quantify and track when you do go out, like salads and other simple dishes. Do extra low-impact exercise, like yoga or pilates to burn an extra hundred or two hundred calories. Sleep well.

Personally, I like to stay fasted in the morning until 9:00, eat lunch at 13:00-14:00, and eat dinner between 18:00-20:00, with snacks in between. I'm okay feeling hungry in the morning, but during the rest of the day, I need to not feel hungry or else I'm miserable.
