  1. if you are talking about the TEF yes i agree . all foods are not equal , but the most easiest way to explain to someone who wants to lose weight is that they need to be in a calorie deficit.
  2. "energy can neither be created nor destroyed" if you consume too many calories the body stores the excess mainly as fat ( some muscle will be built ) if you consume too few calories the body will need to get the energy from somewhere to keep you alive , this comes from fat reserves and/or muscle no food is inherently fattening , it is the excess calories that is consumed that adds the weight to the body and it is far easier to consume more calories from the "bad" foods than the good ones . it is easy to consume 2500 calories ( the average males daily calorie target ) from a tub of ice cream in one sitting and then be hungry 2 hours later . it's very hard to eat 2500 calories of salad in one sitting . avocado, nuts, salmon etc, contain a lot of calories mainly from "good fats" but will benefit your body greatly compared to eating ice cream . if you eat too much of the good food you will still gain weight . the excess has to go somewhere ( mainly on your belly as fat ) , the deficit has to come from somewhere ( your belly fat ) it's pretty simple, find your maintenance calories for the day using an online calculator , be 500 calories below it every day and adjust as the weeks go on . try to consume all your calories from food so you feel full . drinking a can of full sugar coke eats into your daily allowance of calories . just drink water , black coffee or diet sodas . enjoy a few beers on the weekend ( better to drink spirits with diet soda ) . there are about 200 calories in a pint of beer and about 50 in a vodka and soda . walking or any aerobic exercise will improve your fitness and also create more of a deficit
  3. calories in versus calories out for weight loss . energy has to come from somewhere for you to walk, talk , breathe , pumping the heart with blood , scratching your head , thinking etc . you can eat all the healthy foods , nuts , salmon, brown rice, salads , but if you eat more calories than you are expending each day you will gain weight. you could eat nothing but deep fried chicken and lose weight , so long as you are expending more energy than you take in google "john cisna teacher weight loss " food is the main source of energy for the body if food is scarce the body will use it's reserves ( fat and muscle ) for energy ( when you are on a diet ) when fat is depleted it will start eating itself to preserve life ( muscle and tissue ) to keep as much muscle as you can on a diet it is wise to do some form of resistance training and to eat a high protein diet . you need to be in a calorie deficit which you create by eating less, exercising more ( swimming ,running , walking etc ) or both . track the calories you consume and be under your maintenance figure by about 500 calories a day . walk 4 times a week for 30 minutes to an hour . you could easily lose 1 - 2 pound a week . i lost 10 kg doing this and drinking beers every weekend , going to restaurants etc go on a bodybuilding forum and you will receive loads of good advice on how to do it good luck
