No, losing weight is very very SIMPLE.
But a lot of people, like me when I was obese, don't struggle with knowing what to eat. We struggle with our brain, with satiety, with binging. With failing and comforting ourselves with food and failing more. With controlling food as a means of controlling our lives. With not taking ownership of our problems.
It's not easy at all. It's really fucking hard. But at least it's not complicated.
I'm not a stranger to having those problems, but if you read what I said, you'd also know that I said that once you make up your mind and have the knowledge necessary to make the choices that leads to weightloss, it is very very very easy.
That hard part is breaking out of the cycle and establishing a healthier habit. Once you're on that track, losing weight is easy.
But if you don't have the motivation and/or the right mindset, it will not happen, and there can be a myriad of reasons as to why that is. Life circumstances, mental health and such. I myself have dealt with a lot of blows in my life recently that has caused me to gain weight and I'm going to lose the weight when I go on break and finally get some time away from the stress. And after that, it's gonna be pretty easy to keep going.
But losing weight is easy. I will always stand by that.
