Losing weight isn't easy, but it is simple: I ate just one normal-sized meal a day for the last six weeks, and I've lost 7kg. First two weeks were hard, but it was quite easy after that. Going somewhere unfamiliar made it easier to break old, bad eating habits. Ask me anything.

I see it as two separate concerns: 1. what you eat and how much you exercise, and 2. how you deal with the challenge of (1) mentally. (1) is really simple; (2) is hard, and it seems like most diet plans do broadly the same for (1) but offer differ in the ideas they offer for (2).

There's also no magic in (1), as far as I can tell: no special combinations of food or exercise which give you drastically better results by following a precise plan. The marginal effect of eating a bit less or exercising a bit more is entirely predictable.

But it's going to be (2) which lets you down, because there are all kinds of psychological effects that aren't conducive to long-term success, e.g. "I've already deviated from my plan ∴ I can eat whatever I like, and start afresh tomorrow".
