Yes. That's logical (except for people who are morbidly obese). Usually, getting the diet right solves weight problems.

Which diet are you on?

After trying literally every kind of diet imaginable, I’ve sort of settled on my own diet.

I’m gluten free, as I found that my body’s reaction to gluten was a huge reason why I had trouble keeping weight off. I also avoid vegetable oils, because they’re poison.

Beyond that, I don’t overthink it too much. I eat in a calorie deficit and keep macros at protein first, fat second, carbs third.

I probably will go back on low carb again at some point, but I’ve spent most of my life on hugely restricted diets and dammit, I feel like having a baked potato with my steak or rice with my curry should be a doable thing. I don’t eat sweets and I have very little trouble with portion control.

I lift weights at least 4 days a week. Cardio every day.
