So uhm dieting is actually hard. Help Me!

Do plenty of walking. Serously, it's the best way. If you need to get anywhere within 3 miles, walk it, or cycle.

You said you used to play outside a lot? Get back to doing that.

Dieting is hard, especially if you have to beat the eating habit. That hunger feeling is your first real barrier, try eating small amounts regularly - like fruits, it'll briefly fight off the hunger until it's time to have a proper meal.

Proper meal, have a breakfast, lots of little mini-meals (fruit and stuff) then a bigger, proper dinner.

Also, a clevel little trick, before you eat your dinner, drink 2 full glasses of water. that'll fill you up some and won't want to eat so much!

Eventually your stomach will shrink a little, and then you won't feel that hunger so much, and when you do, it'll be because you've actually missed a meal, not just because you want to eat!
