Just comes down to eating less than you burn or if just trying to maintain not eating more than you burn. Think the main reason a lot of dudes get fat is still eating like they’re playing/training for sports at a competitive level when they’ve been working a desk job, writing code or driving a truck for the last 10 years.
It is way more complicated than calorie counting.
When and what you eat matters a lot. Intermittent fasting has proven benefits that go way beyond weight loss.

You can over-complicate it if you want, but if you’re on average eating more calories than you burn a week you’re going to gain weight the same is true for loss or maintenance. Other factors can come into play thyroid issues, undiagnosed diabetes etc but if you’re healthy it’s simply a matter of maintaining a deficit through diet and exercise.

Weight management is about glucose and insulin -- even if you're healthy.

I'm 56 and people say I look 40.

Still mow my yard with a crappy little push mower - just for the exercise. (~90 mins) :cool:

Dr Fung is legit:

Dr. Lustig is also legit:

I try to smoke an hour or so before supper so that supper satisfies the munchies. My munchies is not a craving for sweets but anything that will fill my belly more which is not good for my old age diet. The munchies is much more evident after having Bubblegum versus Big Bud. When I was a kid I used to experience cottonmouth afterwards but do not experience that effect now in my old age.

Today I learned some interesting things about weight loss surgery. The only weight loss method that gives long term and guaranteed results is bariatric surgery. It is about reducing the volume of the stomach and speeding up the movement of food through the gastrointestinal tract, resulting in less food intake.
Diet and exercise surgery won't help if you dont learn these. Weight loss starts in the kitchen. No need for surgery.

I don't crave sweets either. I love making a big pot of salad for supper and then eating huge platefuls all evening :)

I went from 285 to 178 riding a bike and counting calories. Back up to 220 doing weight training and proper diet with macro/micro nutrients. Yes calories in calories out is a thing but unless you want to be skinny fat then body composition is also important. So is your aerobic and anaerobic capacity and muscular endurance.

Watch the video.

Anyone who says "a calorie is a calorie" is uninformed.

Did I say a calorie is a calorie? But while you're there - a calorie IS a calorie. Not all calories have the same nutritional value is what you're after.
I'm done.
This is like casting pearls before swine. :dunce:

Bask in your ignorance and have a nice, shorter life.

I like intermittent fasting, ive found myself eating healthier more nutrient dense foods to hold myself over for longer, I chew on stuff that keeps my stomach settled while im not eating, and plenty of water whenever i get hungry.

1000 calories a day, for a prolonged and perhaps definitive amount of time (depending on your size)
Small portions of everything on your plate, with carbs being the smallest pile. Cutting carbs all together will make things happen faster
learning to strengthen your control over hunger, meditating and self awareness can even help you gain control over your appetite period
exercise, no question. the more you move around the better.
muscle training, as stated
I sometimes drink energy drinks instead of meals..
