Exercise is great and healthy but really not that effective for weight loss. Losing weight is all about how much you eat.
If you're at all serious about getting into shape, then you have to count your calories. By writing what you eat down you'll become more aware and naturally start eating less. Same goes for what you drink.
But I already don't eat much, I usually only eat 1 main meal and maybe a snack or two and that's it. These aren't unhealthy meals either, I think the only unhealthy things I eat/drink is sometimes orange juice or ice cream a few days a week.
I've tried going on a special diet where you only eat vegetables/nuts/lean meat and some fruit but it didn't work and I went back to my old diet
Right. Most people have no clue about portion sizes and calorie content. You need to weigh, measure anx log everything you eat and drink to get a handle on it. Shit, I've known people who didn't count drinks because 'it's not food so it doesn't count'. Or people who think juice is good but are clueless about how much sugar is in it or that a lot of 'juices' are really basically just kool aid.
IIN I'm fat?

It doesn't matter how much you eat. Just start counting calories, or nothing will change.
