Summary: the kind of food matters. Avoid processed foods and too many carbs.

My family switched to a Pescetarian diet (vegetarian, but with some seafood). Even totally enjoying my food, I started to lose more weight than I wanted to so I added a fourth meal most days and my weight stabilized where I want it (I am 6'4" tall, and my preferred weight is 200 pounds).

Also, I personally love carbs: I eat lots of cauliflower, carrots, some pasta and whole wheat bread. It is a matter of seeing what diet works for you as an individual.
