I think weight loss really is as simple as calories in versus calories out. The trick is really counting calories (you must be honest here) to find out what you are consuming then cutting back on a daily basis until you reach an amount that causes you to lose weight. For me (I am a 43 year old, 6’ tall male) that number is 1200-1500 calories on non workout days and 1500-1800 calories on workout days. If I stay under that amount, the pounds just melt away. Now that I am below goal, I shoot for about 1500-2000 calories a day to maintain my weight.
