I dont know what you like but I lost a lot of weight cutting certain things out(fast food,soda).When you totally cut all fat from a diet,your body,as a defense,trys to keep too much of what you have.You dont want trans fat or a lot of saturated but poly and mono is ok.The natural fats found in fish like salmon are good for you.
Some other little things I did was,wheat bread instead of white bread.I ate more times a day.Three meals but with small snacks inbetween(low fat yogurt,fruit,maybe a granola bar).If you like mayo,helmans light has been recommended.Smart Choice popcorn,Nature Valley granola bars,Bushs Best Vegetarian Baked beans(which I wasnt sure about,tried them and really good).2% milk instead of whole.Turkey,ham.For cheese,a lot of people I know go with swiss.
I love spagetti but instead of just spagetti for dinner,I learned to portion it.A portion of spagetti to add carbs to a meal that also includes meat and vegetables.
This would be a day for me:
6:00-whole wheat wrap,turkey,swiss,2 eggs.juice
9:00-yogurt,bananna,granola maybe
12:00-wheat bread,ham,swiss,.fruit,milk
3:00-yogurt,apple
6:00-salmon,steamed vegatables,multi grain bread,milk
Dont forget to drink water
I hope this gives you a idea or helps a little bit
