Is it true that after all, the best way to lose weight is by following the old calorie in vs. calorie out method? I started believeing that this is what actually matters in the end, because a person who always burns the same amount of calories as they take in will maintain a stable weight. And this works the other 2 ways, too: when a person burns more calories than they take in they lose weight as well as when a person burns less calories than they take in they'll probably gain weight.
So if this makes sense, everything should be much easier. My question is: will I be able to lose weight if I make sure to burn more calories than I take in?
If the calorie in vs. calorie out way has any logic then what I'm thinking about should be very logical, as well.
I can't give up sweets. They are my weakness. I already gave up soda, chips and I eat breakfast everyday. I would be able to give up any other things, too, except for sweets. So I'm not actually asking for too much, I just want to be able to eat something sweet everyday. I calculate my calories daily, so would I be able to lose weight if I burn more calories than I take in, no matter where I'm getting those calories from?
It's a simple question actually... If I'm able to exercise enough to burn all the calories I take in (and even more) would it matter what I'm eating?
