Something that you also need to take into consideration is not the number on the scale.

There are people who weigh more than I do, by the number, even though we are the same height and such.

Why do they weigh more?

Because they have more muscle, and muscle weighs more than fat.

I tend to stay off the scale and watch my body while it changes with my exercise and diet. That way I know I'm doing something right, instead of going two months and freaking out if I gained two pounds.

Be aware of your body, not your number.


Totally agree and you're right. You shouldn't be checking the scales all the time. It's only going to make you feel worse because the number could increase but due to muscle mass. It's more about the inches you lose. I don't even check the scales either but I can see the inches go as the months go by.

Eat less, move around more.


If you want to lose weight you need to burn more calories than you eat. Meaning you need to count calories and eat less than what you probably do normally. So he is right.

No, you need to eat better. If you eat only 1000 calories, but it is all crap, you will have no nutrients, and while you may lose weight, you will be extremely unhealthy.
A lot of skinny people out there are much more unhealthy than your average fat person.

You need to do both. Eat healthy and count calories.

If you eat right, you don't need to count calories.
You get hungry because your body is missing nutrients.
