"Weight loss and long-term maintenance
Dr. Fung continues by asking the following question:
“So, where is the evidence that reducing calorie intake as the primary strategy results in long term meaningful weight loss?”
Okay, so let’s see what scientific evidence we have:
This 10-year observational study of 2886 men and women found that, after 10 years, average weight loss with caloric restriction and an increase in activity was around 50 pounds.
The researchers reported that “decreases in leisure-time physical activity, dietary restraint, and frequency of self-weighing and increases in the percentage of energy intake from fat and disinhibition were associated with greater weight regain.”
Essentially, weight loss success in the long term was found to be associated with staying active, controlling caloric intake, keeping track of body weight and not eating huge amounts of fat.
The authors also reported that “long-term weight-loss maintenance is possible and requires sustained behavior change”.
Truly ground-breaking stuff!"

"Conclusions and recommendations
So here are our conclusions and recommendations. Sadly, they are neither ground-breaking nor book-selling, but that’s life.
The focus of ANY weight loss intervention should be to create a caloric deficit with a diet that is:
composed primarily of minimally-processed, micronutrient dense foods
has enough protein to prevent losses in lean body mass
doesn’t create deficiencies in micronutrients
honors the individual’s personal preferences with regards to meal timing, food choice, and so on
can be adhered to in the long term
promotes a healthy relationship with food
NOW BUY OUR BOOK, DAMMIT! Ok ok, we don’t have one… yet.
In the meantime, share this post!"

Yeah, nothing new. Well, actually, I shouldn't say that. It's a revelation for a lot of people, unfortunately. So many guru diets out there. I'm constantly asked how I lost so much. It shouldn't even be a question. I stopped eating so much. Oh well...

""But Fung says..." If you say that 5 times fast, it starts to sound like, “Butt fungus,” which strangely enough has just as much credibility as Fung."- guy on Facebook in a fat loss group I'm part of. Lol.
