As someone who has lost major weight and kept it off, I can tell you the hardest part is doing it instead of just intending to do it someday. Eating fewer calories than you expend is easy in comparison, it’s just math. Deciding to rearrange your life so you have time to work out and shop for decent food, finding new stuff to do with your fat friends that only want to eat out and aren’t in good enough shape to do anything else, that’s tricky. The main obstacle to losing weight is not wanting to give up the habits that made you gain weight in the first place.
