[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The idea that women (or anyone) can lose weight only if they have the time to work out and cook healthy food is a lie spread to sell stuff (like gym memberships, personal trainers, and expensive groceries) and to make people feel better about being fat. If you want to lose weight, you have to take in fewer calories than you burn. The most efficient way to do that is to eat less, which means developing better habits about your food consumption. Plus, eating less takes LESS time and costs LESS money. The amount your body burns in its resting state declines as you age, which means that to avoid gaining weight as you age, you have to also reduce the amount you eat. It's very simple, and the nutritionists who aren't trying to sell you some fad product know this.[/quote]

You are stuck in bad science from the dark ages, poster. There is literally a mountain of medical research evidence that totally disproves the calories in/calories out (CICO) theory of weight loss. It is total bunk. It does not acknowledge the differences of calories sources nor the very complex interworkings of hormones and other factors in the body, and how very individual we are.

I could literally post links all day long that reiterate that CICO is total and complete bullshit. Only closed minded gym rats and people selling BS diet methods are still squawking CICO to people. Get with the times and the nutritional science.[/quote]

New poster. Another thing to consider is that most medical studies were done on men, not women. For men it very well may be calories in calories out. Women have all of the hormonal changes throughout their life cycle.[/quote]

Still doesn't change CICO, hormones may impact here and there, but overall your body is still using calories to survive.  And burning calories is burring calories.[/quote]

Even just taking CICO, it takes some effort to figure out the right balance that will keep you full all day and not craving for other things.  Then preparing that type of food actually takes time.  "Just eat less" without more is not really a strategy for long term success.[/quote]
