1st point: DON'T exercise. It's a total waste of time.
Match your calories to your lazy lifestyle.
This is an intro video. See my other videos. I lost so much weight so easily my friends were afraid I was going to die. Everybody who knew me were talking about it for about a year (and still mention it) Basically I weighed my food and ate the same number of calories every day. I dieted for 5 days and for most meals on the weekend. But on the weekends I ate like a pig for a meal or two. Sometimes even eating 5 plates of food for one bbq meal on a Saturday evening and still losing weight. My system: People eat 21 meals/week or more. Be careful for most of them and be a pig for a couple of them on the weekend. Who the heck wants to diet on the weekend? You can't be a pig every time you eat and expect to be slim. You can be a pig a couple of times a week and be slim. It's that simple. No exercise necessary. But you exercise you can eat more (a little more; let's not use it as an excuse to pig out each meal) and that's fun.
Because my calories were constant my weight loss was regular and I was losing at least a pound every day. I was so regular I was able to set my clock according to my weight loss. No joke. Sometimes I lost 2 pounds per day if it was a busy day. I monitored my weight with a good digital scale every day and wrote everything down. I hit a plateau in the middle for about a month and when my body readjusted itself, bang, another 25 pounds easily lost. I was eating candy, chocolate, and any other junk food that could be easily weighed and the calories fairly accurately calculated. I ate whenever I wanted day or night but always keeping the daily calorie count the same. I don't consider myself an expert but a 50 pound loss does not lie. Anybody who knows me would agree that I know how to do it. Even strangers who had seen me before wondered and asked how I did it. Details to come.
My goal during my diet was to see the scale go down, nothing else mattered.This is my belief; eat healthy food, diet radically, see the scale drop like crazy, lose the max. fat your body will give up easily (at a certain point your body will fight back.This is your set point for me it is a slim 155 pounds. For me to go below this is almost impossible. I got down to 148 but it took a lot of extra effort. My body loves to be 155 lb.) And them after losing a heap of weight figure out how to keep it off. What can I say? I lost more than 50 lbs, no problem, I was very skinny and my friends and even the strangers who had seen me before told me to put some weight BACK ON. Lose weight first and then figure out how to maintain it as a lifestyle later. I know how to become skinny, that is the easy part. The harder part is to set up a lifestyle to maintain it. I guess I can't eat half a pack of cookies in one sitting on a regular basis anymore. Darn it ! I knew there was a catch. That's what I like about my system, the occasional pig-out can't ruin a whole week or month of careful eating .
I have absolutely no idea what the carb, protein, fat quantities were. It is not important for losing weight. Just eat a bit of everything: some meat, carbs, oil, candy(pure carbs and darn easy to calculate calorie content), chocolate(oil and carbs, healthy yummy). Who knows what the proper proportions you need are anyway. Even scientists and health "experts" disagree and don't really know. I lost 50 lbs and have no idea what the carb/prot/oil ratios were (only approx. calories.) I was and am healthy.
Take vitamins/minerals.
Regarding body set-point. The set-point of your body is the minimum weight that your body is happy maintaining.
Below that weight your body really fights against further weight loss. My set-point is a very slim 155 lb. Unfortunately for me at this weight there is a little bit of fat covering my lower abs. I can see the top ones but not the lower ones. I think that most people would be slim looking at their set-point but for them it may not be slim enough. I think that the only way to coax your body to lose weight down below your set point is to be very regular. Regular daily calories, regular exercise, regular lifestyle and sleep habits. If everything keep changing your body will determine a body weight it is happy with; the set-point.
I was very regular at my set-point for a couple of months. Because of this regularity my body was finally willing to give up fat below my set-point. I went 7 lb below my set- point. Imagine a greedy dog getting only just enough bones to survive on. He ain't sharing with nobody! After an extended period though he becomes happy and realizes he at least won' t starve he will be willing to sacrifice the odd bone to his best girlfriends. This is how your body becomes willing to go below your set point; extended regularity. See the weight loss blog I started at;

I look at calorie content. Lettuce is heavy by weight but extremely low in calories. Chocolate is not so heavy or watery but it is high in calories so you have to be careful with it.. Look at daily calories.

You are soooo right! I once lost 54lb in 6 weeks and all i did was count calories. I absolutely hate working out, it bores me incredibly. Before when I forced myself to work out in order to lose the weight, the work out never did much for my weight loss.. only when i realized how little calories i burn out during the day, and therefor only deserve to eat as little calories, was when the weight just dropped off.. I know exercise lovers frown upon this but, to each his own right? it worked for me!

And you too are sooo right. It all has to do with how many calories you burn. The problem is we don't always know. But we can count our calories and see whether the scale goes up or down. You are a very wise person. Exercise lovers have the benefit of being able to eat a couple more calories everyday. However, they cannot eat the tones of extra calories they think they can.

I am so glad you and I are in agreement. Thanks for the great comment. My videos are primitive but everybody has to find what works for their body. Wow! 54lb is 54 blocks of butter in equivalence. You are amazing.
