I’m not sure who in particular this is directed toward, but I imagine it’s not me because I am not saying there is only one way. I’m actually saying there are many ways to do it, but ultimately they all boil down to calories in/calories out.
Going low carb, high protein, intermittent fasting, paleo, etc., the idea at the end of the day is to restrict you calories so that you’re burning more than you’re taking in.

And certainly at some level it comes down to calories in versus calories out and if someone is eating too much they should cut back.
But this can still be simplistic. For instance, an overweight, middle age person might cut their calorie intake by 100 calories a day and their body might respond by burning 100 less calories just while doing things like sitting in a chair...
Once a body has accustomed to a higher weight it can fight weight loss by slowing down the resting metabolism.
So reducing the calories in can reduce the calories out. No, it isn't always that simple for everybody but trying to reduce it to simple phrases isn't really accurate either.

I didn’t say “less filling” but that was my aim with the chips and soda talk. You can sit down with a bag of Doritos and a Coke and 15 minutes later you’ve taken in 500 calories but you’re still hungry- because that processed crap is super high cal but not filling. On top of all that, processed foods are more likely to cause cancer. It’s basically the worst combination of shit you can eat.
