We all inherently know (but like to forget or choose to ignore) that losing weight is really more about simple mathematics than it is about adhering to the latest dietary craze.
Eat more calories than your body burns off, and you’ll start to gain weight. The equation is really just that simple: Too many calories + not enough activity = excess pounds.
As the American Academy of Family Physicians puts it, “To lose weight, you have to cut down on the number of calories you consume and start burning more calories each day.”
It sounds simple enough … but it if were really that easy, why would 66 percent of U.S. adults be overweight or obese?
