“Well, consider that the medical experts advise people to lose weight in ways that are bound to fail.”
They fail due to lack of will.
If you maintain a daily deficit of 500 calories you will lose 1 pound per week, for every week you have the will to continue.
There are a bunch of fools on this site that argue that’s some lie.
But it has been proven clinically over a dozen times.
It only fails when you allow people to CHOOSE to eat more.
I have no willpower.
But I have plenty of wontpower, it turns out. As in, “I won’t eat that thing that’ll make me feel crappy,” or, “I won’t be lazy and forego the exercise bike today.”
