Yet another person acting like "calories-in calories-out" is the only variable in dieting. Good grief. There's a lot of psychology to it. I've lost a bunch of weight just eating 2 meals a day and make that "the law". I don't really count calories. I eat a small plate of food that is "whole" food and not crap. probably 600-800 calories most meals. Occassionally on the weekend I'll relent on a saturday to go out with friends to dinner or movie or something. Most people are getting their extra calories by snacking and eating huge meals when they really don't need to. That's no secret to anyone. There are techniques like IF that work for some people. There also seems to be some side effects as well of less inflammation and food cravings, at least there were for me.

I'm fine with saying that skipping meals and snacking helps some people compliance, hunger issues etc... and do it myself, but want to warn against the idea that one can eat as much as they want as long as they eat on a magical schedule.
