It's totally possible OP. I started to eat a low carb diet on 1st June. 2019 so am coming up to 1 year now. In that time I have lost 9.5 stone.
I eat less than 20g of carbs a day, so I do not eat bread, potatoes, pasta, rice, anything sugary etc. I do eat big salads, lots of stir fried and roasted veggies and meat such as delicious home roasted chicken and crunchy baked pork belly. Once I've eaten the chicken I use the bones and left over veggies to make delicious bone broth/stock and use this in my meals. I also do watch my calories, it's easy to overeat low carb foods such as cheese and cream otherwise. A do believe you need a calorie deficit to lose weight successfully.
After a few months, my DH decided he would start to cut down too. He doesn't follow the same rules as me. He has massively cut down carbs but still eats (less) rice, pasta etc. He counts calories instead. It has worked well for him and he has lost 4.5 stone.
We both track everything we eat using the NutraCheck app. I find this really helps as I know exactly what the consequences are of what I'm eating. I can also enter foods on a what-if basis to see how this will impact my daily totals and change it up to make it work.
I honestly think getting started is the hardest step. Once you are in the process, have some idea of what your new daily eating pattern is and seeing pounds drop off it is much easier to keep going.
I can't tell you how my life has changed iver the last year. I'm healthier, I have done so many things I either could not or would have avoided this time last year - I've flown to the US, been to numerous west end shows, started my dream job and am able to go on walks and wear a swimsuit!
Good luck, you can do this.
