What was the habit/lifestyle changed that made it all "click" for you?

I've been trying to lose weight since I was about 14 years old (sad, but true). In the past 3/4 years I've been made aware that to lose weight it is simple: burn more calories than you are eating

Except it isn't that simple is it? I've been trying this method for the past 3 years and every time I end up giving up. Whether its loss of motivation, having 1 "bad" weekend then giving up, because its Christmas/birthday, whatever excuse I can think of

What was the 1 habit or minor lifestyle change that made everything click into place for you and your weight loss?

For me recently, it is walking everywhere. I live in the UK and quite close to a big city, if I ever wanted to go into the city before I would drive for convenience (and laziness). It's about a 2 mile (3.2km ish) walk from my house into the city. I've started walking into the city and back home again at least 3 times a week. To visually see the extra calories burnt and steps walked on my Fitbit has been the thing I needed to make everything click into place and to help me keep my motivation in other aspects of this weight loss journey I'm re-beginning

What was the 1 habit that changed it all for you?
