Three rules:
1) hunger is your friend (easy)
2) eat according to the 1960's Canada Food Guide, and IGNORE ALL CURRENT BULLSHIT!! (easy)
3) find the thing that makes you gain weight (difficult)
Regarding rule #3:
My wife simply stopped eating sugar. Sugar only. Everything else is OK. (Lotta sugar out there...) As for me, I dropped ten pounds in a couple of weeks simply following rule #1 & rule #2, but then stalled for more than a year until I quit eating potatoes. Everything else is OK. (Last night I had three pastrami sandwiches for supper and four more for dessert! That's right, SEVEN pastrami sandwiches on white buns in one evening. This morning my weight was down by .8 lbs (from 170.6 to 169.8). The lowest since I started two years ago.) She avoids sugar and I avoid potatoes. When we indulge at a restaurant or social event, its a real treat.
Everyone is different, so don't be sucked in by the latest book, documentary, or stupid internet post. You need to experiment with rule three until you find the thing(s) YOU must avoid.
