MY Weight Loss
These are the concepts I have applied to my own diet to loose weight.

(Calories Eaten - Calories Burned) = Net Calories Gain/Loss
Not all food calories are equal, but for purposes of weight loss you can count them as equal.

ANY diet that sustains a significant caloric deficit over time will result in weight loss.
(-400) cal/day = (-4000) cal/10days = 3lb loss/month

NO diet will succeed unless you control how much you eat.
Portion control is Paramount.
ANY diet can lose weight if you control how much you eat.

What you eat is critical to healthy, sustainable weight loss.
Eat small amounts of the best quality food you can find.   Organic if at all possible.
Buy whole, fresh foods that were recently alive.  Use frozen only if necessary.
Canned foods are problematic and may be polluted with chemicals.
Processed foods are poison. Don't eat poison.

Controlling When you eat can optimize how your body processes food.
Restrict all eating to 8 hours a day or less.
Never eat within two hours of bedtime.

Exercise is critical to a healthy body and mind, but has a minor effect on caloric deficits.
You will not achieve and sustain a significant weight loss through exercise alone.

Measure and record what and how much you eat every day.
Measure and record your weight every week.
