I agree a lot with what you say. I will take another sentence from the book because I agree with it and have noticed it first hand after changing my diet: > If you focus on health, your weight will take care of itself There are some mornings when weighing on the scale where I notice that I lost more than 1kg (compared to 24 hours before). More often than not, I didn't even have a so-called "cheat meal". I eat healthily 95% of the time, so even if I eat junk food and gain 800g in a day I know I'm going to lose them by just sticking to my usual healthy habits. I guess this was just a really long way of saying: fluctuations in body weight don't matter day-to-day if you stick to a healthy diet. Taking into account my body weight (I'm lean, with muscles, and shorter than average for a man), I eat way more than I should be. My rice portion, which is a side, is sometimes as much as 250g. And this is about half my plate. Then I eat fruits, nuts during the day. All this after having eaten oatmeal for breakfast (about 100g). Dinner is a bit smaller than lunch but I eat at least twice what my parents would eat (granted, they are older).
