Limiting calories in is almost impossible if your brain keeps telling you you’re hungry and won’t let you sleep until you stuffed your face.
That’s called will power. It isnt easy but it is true. Stop over eating and you lose weight.
Increasing calories out is almost impossible if your job has you sitting on a chair all day and drains all motivation out of you, then you get home to parent your kids without a partner.
Again. This is willpower. Increasing your resting calorie burn rate is done the same way as increasing your active calorie burn rate, by exercising and building music.
There is not complex equation here. Eat less and move more. It really is that simple.

I disagree. It absolutely helps people realize that the problem is not external and is only fixable by doing something yourself. No one else is going to lose weight for you.
Thanks for your vote of confidence but I was in my 30s working 12+ hour days. Sure, I wasn’t poor and still don’t have kids though, but that is on purpose.
Additionally, I don’t and have never dieted. I’ve simply stopped overeating.
The excuses fat people are making in this thread are unbelievable.
“I eat too many calories because I’m poor, I have kids and I work a lot of hours”. None of that is stopping them from putting down the fork, nor are all people in a similar position over weight.
It’s simply a combination of greed and the inability to delay gratification. Why have a nice healthy body in a few months or years when you can have cake now?
I don’t know. I’m not overweight but I am almost always hungry and it does suck. I could easily see myself deciding F it. I have degenerative back disease that motivates me to keep my weight down. Anyway, attributing it entirely to willpower is naive, a lot of folks are just dealing with life and weight isn’t as big of a priority to them as maybe their doctor or presumably yourself would like it to be. If I didn’t get back pain I could easily see myself not worrying about it. Stop acting like you know everyone’s life or that everyone who has different priorities than you are somehow week, you come across like a giant know it all piece of shit.
You’re talking as if eating less is a hard thing to do. It’s not, it’s just whether you can delay the idea of excess food now in exchange for a nice/healthy body later. Most adults are smart enough to know that if offered £10 today or £20 tomorrow, they’ll go for tomorrows option, but for some reason fat people aren’t willing to exchange an excessive diet now for good health and a nice body later.
It’s physically more effort to eat more than it is to eat less. You don’t have to prioritise losing weight to be able to eat smaller portions. The food isn’t putting itself in to people’s mouths, although given the range of excuses here, I am surprised that no one’s claimed that they’re being force fed yet.
At the end of the day, I don’t care what someone else’s body weight is, but if you don’t like being called fat and you’re simultaneously going to make 101 excuses about why you can’t just eat a bit less, then what can I say? Pathetic.
