How To Lose Weight
The single change which will help you lose weight most is to reduce dramatically the STARCH eaten. The main STARCHES we eat are rice, potatoes, pasta and bread, as well as all types of sugar. Many people have lost weight easily simply by dramatically reducing the starch they eat. There is abundant science which demonstrates that frequently eating starch causes weight gain and obesity.
The view that eating fat makes us fat, is a myth propagated by health departments in the USA, then the UK, in the 1980s. Their recommendations were based on research since shown to be faulty. However, it takes a long time to reverse such deeply held beliefs - even when they are flawed. As well as leading to obesity, excessive starch also cause degenerative diseases such as heart disease and high blood pressure.
So, not just for reasons of obesity it is a particularly wise move to reduce dramatically the amount of starch eaten in the diet.
