    Who are the "you guys" and where are all the threads "complicating things"?

    Just close your eyes, click on a random thread, and you will find them.

    I think the op's post is true for some people but not everyone. It is not that simple for everyone. I have diabetes. Some of the meds I an on make it harder for me to lose weight. I was told that by my DOCTOR. Sometimes it is not as easy as pushing away from the table.

    I believe MANY of us on here have weight issues and are confused about how to lose it in a healthy way. So being such a crabapple about it doesn't help anyone. If you are such a pro and the rest of are losers, find a different site to share your heavenly wisdom with.

    You still haven't discussed those with chronic illnesses that either the illness itself makes it difficult or the medications taken for it do. Just Google to see full lists of illnesses and medications that affect weight and weight loss. What you are saying in it's simplest form is true but nothing is always that simple for everyone. Your attitude is dismissing to all of the people that do have the stack dealt against them. It is not always a matter of lack of drive, will power, or common sense.

    This thread is for the majority of people who are over weight and or trying to gain weight, not people with medical conditions lol.

    While the OP is technically right, some of the criticism is valid as well.

    I think the psychology of this is the real challenge.

    My horse drinks whenever I lead it to water. Why are you trying to overcomplicate things?

    Ah, the arrogance of youth having all the answers. Like we haven't seen this many times before. Like we weren't in your shoes many years ago when we were the ones with all the answers. And in 30-40 years when you in our shoes and you know you won't have all the answers.

    Time is the great equalizer. We've seen this play before.

    Don't be hatin, OP is speaking the truth.

    While everything is technically correct, there are a lot of nuances missing.

    "Just eat under maintenance" would be a whole lot easier if we had a little plug we could attach to the nearest analysis machine and get the correct maintenance calories. A lot of thing affect the human metabolism. Quitting smoking could cause one's metabolism to slow down, as could hormonal imbalances, age, nutrition (or lack) or a myriad of other factors.

    And, in reality, if all it took was a bit of education to lose weight, we wouldn't be in such a pickle as a nation. The diet industry wouldn't be a million dollar market. Dr. Oz would still be performing heart surgery. :laugh: There's so much emotion and motivation tied up into what we eat and how much we exercise that it's easy to plug a quick fix and have tons of followers flock to you…

    And then to get shamed when you ask a "simple" or even "stupid" question … well, no wonder some people quit before they've begun.
