Your body needs fuel (nutrition) to sustain its activity.
If you take in more fuel than your activity requires, your body will convert it into excess fat.
If you take in less fuel than your activity requires, your body will burn fat.
What else is there to discuss? I honestly do not understand how we have these convoluted discussions. The only other thing worth considering is how you can make it easier for yourself to cope with the feeling of hunger, so that you don't give in and eat more than you need.

It took me about 6 months to learn the portion of food that will fill me up, so that I can stop eating well before my stomach takes it's sweet-ass time telling my brain it's full. Best thing I ever did for myself.
- Tycho 7y agoHad a colleague who went from near-obese to slim in about 6 months. One tip was to eat small amounts throughout the day, and stuff like bread that fills you up, not stuff like salad that will leave you feeling empty. From my own experience I think being well attuned to your own appetite patterns is helpful, like you say. That's going to be hard if you have a volatile and busy lifestyle.
