I counted my calories for a half year and successfully lost 14 kilos. But since I like to feel full and I enjoy eating I only ate foods with low calories/gram ratio. These foods are generell also healthy as well.

Calorie-couting definately works, you just have to be honest with yourself and count everything you eat and measure always exact.

I recommend you workout a bit while doing this though, I lost not only fat but muscle mass and my daily calories intake my body need went down about 400 calories.

Yes. Berries are great for this, especially blackberries. They have very low sugar compared to other fruits, and high fiber. So they are good for satiety. They go bad relatively quickly though, and tend to be expensive out of season. :)
