Finally figured it out
I have always added ~ 10 lbs between the months of November and December. Every year.
And then I spend Jan - April trying to lose it. Last year was the first year that weight never came of.
A friend of mine recently went through a weight transformation. He was up to (at 5' 5"
200 lbs and lost 50 lbs. He looks (and feels) great. So i had to ask him how he did it. He said it was really simple.
Eat only during an 8 hour time period each day. You can eat whatever you want but only during that 8 hour time period. That time period can be 9-5 or 12-8 or whatever works for you.
I chose 12-8 and thought I would be starving when I woke up each day. But that feeling is not hunger. It's actually thirst. Drink a big glass of water ASAP when you wake up.
So now I am starting eating at 12 and stopping by 8. I have been doing it since Jan 1 and have lost 15 lbs and I back at my goal weight.
The best part of this is : you can eat whatever kind of food you want and if you do this it will be the first time you actually will feel control over how much you weigh.
I hope this helps anyone who might be looking for a better and simpler answer.
Other tips are try to eat as much high protein foods as you can and obviously exercise as much as you can too but the real change here comes from when you eat.

Carbs - I hate you.
Fruit is high in sugar and thus carbs (sorry). Was a wake up for me too.
Stick with veggies instead.
