Make sure that you're getting all of your vitamins & nutrients. Eat a healthy snack like an apple or a banana with water or something. Yogurt helps as well. Just make sure that you're drinking water throughout the day, and that you're having snacks in between meals. This should help you from being hungry.

You can start by slowly cutting back the meals smaller and smaller, and this makes your stomach smaller, so you will get full easier.
You can also drink glasses of water if you aren't hungry but 'bored' so you want to eat, drink a glass of water before dinner too.
Another thing to eat before dinner or lunch is a handful of almonds, they have a lot of benefits, including filling you up a lot.
Last but not least, every time you go to eat more, or every time you reach for the bag of chips just think about why you are doing this and how if you do eat more the diet wont workout.

By the way, what "big meals" are you eating? Be sure you are getting enough nutrients.
The best diet is actually eating continuously. Snacking is good. It keeps up your metabolism. Instead of having big meals, eat little ones throughout the day. True stuff. [ hotpotato's advice column | Ask hotpotato A Question ]
