    You are completely correct. As long as you consume less/more calories than you spend, you will lose/gain weight. How to achieve that is where it can get complicated but I don’t think anyone can dispute the fact.

      You are both correct. There’s this strange and false assumption that people struggling with weight somehow don’t know this though.

      They are incredibly aware. When people ask for advice, comments like OOP’s “eat more” are preaching to the choir.

      It’s as aggravating and obvious as “I need advice for a long drive?”—“well make sure you put gas in the car.” Like, duh.

      • Not only that, but how to gain/lose it in a healthy way.

        A ‘correct’ answer to help lose weight is to try meth. It is not recommended to try meth.
