How about they try the simple stuff first? How about they do try to just, I don’t know, eat a little less first? Try it out. Maybe drop from 300 pounds to 250 pounds and then decide if they want to learn more to get into even better shape? You’re talking about nuance when we’re dealing with people who just don’t stop stuffing their face all day.
Try that first.
Just put down the Doritos and the Oreos. Then we will worry about macros and discuss how overrated cardio is. And a whole host of other things. Let’s trim your grocery bill from $250 a week to $150 a week because you’re picking up salmon and lean chicken instead of Pringles and grabbing Arby’s on the way home.
that is where people fail, its super easy to lose weight with IF or keto, keto is even more efficient because your body uses more energy(about 200-300 a day so over a lb every 12 days) but the way you are suggesting is just not going to work for most people, yes it is a will power issue but have a look at a how blood sugar effects will power https://www.humnutrition.com/blog/how-blood-sugar-affects-food-cravings/ im not just talking out of my arse here, there is a scientific knowledge relating to dieting that is poorly understood by your average person and generally not in any way involved in most common diet plans because the people making them want them to stay dieting and them braking down and snacking just means they failed, not the diet program
think of it like the way you lift vs crossfit, one of you is going to have a much easier time building muscle, just reducing your caloric intake when you are super fat is the crossfit of dieting, its ignoring all of the small effects that you can use to speed up your progress(speaking off, your last set should be to failure and then to failure again with your spotter, a lot of people fail to do this and wonder why they stop making progress and its why lifting and calisthenics are on equal footing to lifting, its not how much you lift is how much you damage your muscles)
