Actually, I don't think that CICO is the best approach for losing weight. First off, it ignores that nutrition is important too, not just calories. Eating healthy is important, and this goes beyond weight loss. Second, obesity has psychological causes that need to be addressed as well, it's important to have a better relationship with food. So it's not just about what you eat. Drinking enough water and having plenty of sleep is very important too. And so on. But I stand to my comment that CICO works for weight loss. It's not generally true, however, that people in financial disarray can get rich by just spending less. Our cost of living is a fundamental limit on how much we can save. But more than that, people can't get rich if they don't have a high income.
