Fruit and veggies will fill your stomach up making it harder to eat anything else while being lower in calories, I drench them in steak fat, idc, about the extra calories gained there, if I dont eag vegetables I eat a ton of snacks, if my stomach is uncomfortably full I dont think about eating. It's just expensive (in my case I have limited fast food options, just restaurants) if you dont cook to get healthier options but you can save hella calories. Like keto bread instead of regular for hotdogs/hamburgers save me at least 100 calories a burger, coke zero instead of coke saves me like 600 calories a day drinking 4 cans (ik I should drink less soda but ive done much much worse to my body being fat and abusing drugs, this is fine in comparison so im sticking to it)
You could always intermittent fast, eat like 4-8 hours of your day and the no food until the next 4-8 hour period, worked for me but I gained most of my weight back when I stopped, I wouldnt want to do it forever so its not viable for me. I lost like 90 lbs gained 70 back. Now I've been losing 10 a year but not gaining it back just trying to minimize calories through ingredients and less snacking.
For candy I swapped to stuff that last longer flavorwise and I get sick of faster like hichews over chocolate. ChocolateI can eat lbs of nonstop, once I start each bite just tastes better, so I try to avoid it or get a variety of minis, having a few small portions of different kinds is more satisfying than one extra large portion of one kind.
