I always though the phrase “that’s easier said than done” is silly because nearly everything is easier said than done

    Losing weight.

    It really is as simple as making sure that Calories In < Calories Out. Reduce caloric intake through dietary changes and increase exercise. But in practice it can be difficult to maintain both of these consistently.

      I often say that weight loss is “simple” insofar as the equation you used but it’s not “easy” because our bodies and brains are hardwired to consume and store as much food as possible.

        Not to mention food packaging can be pretty deceptive vis-à-vis what’s really healthy and what’s not. Making the “right” choices isn’t always simple unfortunately
