A much more sensible approach is to track your calories, and eat in a slight deficit. You might consider joining MyFitnessPal (or similar) to help you do that.

I dropped 25 kg (55 lbs) in 2015 using that method.

Also, regular, daily exercise helps.
I agree and have begun using MyFitnessPal. It does seem to help just being aware of your food calories, and other nutritional distributions. It has a much better inventory and food look-up than the one other such app I tried. Apparently there are some apps that require you to weigh everything, much too tedious as far as I'm concerned. I've lost ten pounds in the past couple of months, slow and steadily.
