    Unfortunately, the only "1 rule" is: Eat less calories than you burn.  Sorry to disappoint!

    There are just a few simple things you need to do as I learned through Paul Mckenna's book "I Can Make you Thin"
    1. eat when you are hungry
    2. eat slowly
    3. eat until you are full. Put down your spoon,fork, whatever between bites. Chew your food. Be aware what you are eating. When you think you are full. STOP. Wait a few minutes. If not sure you are full, eat some more. Then stop when feel full. You can always come back for more if you think you're hungry 10 min from then.
    4. Eat what you want. As long as you follow the above rules.
    You will be amazed at what your body will begin to tell you that it needs.
    I have lost 96 lbs by following Paul's book & advise. After I read his book, I thought why didn't anyone ever tell me these things before. It just clicked & I was off & running with the weight loss. The book also comes with a CD you listen to. Worth every cent I paid.

    The 1 rule to lose weight is to consumer less calories than you burn in a day. For most people they will burn an average 500 calories per day but since the average person also eats around 1800 calories per day there is still a large gap when you won't lose weight.

    The best thing to do to lose weight is exercise a little bit more and eat a little bit less. this is how to start losing weight but after a while you will need to increase the amount of exercise and decrease your daily food intake.

    Many have the idea that controlling diet leads to weight loss. But It is really not about eating less. The first and very important rule to lose weight is to eat right. One should not avoid meals but look into it that he or she has adequate portions of protein,carbohydrates and glucose to stay fit. One should have at least 3 major meals a day and 4 small snackies in between meals. One should not keep his or her stomach empty for more than 3 hours at a stretch. Overall one should have right combination in meals at least 3 fruits a day,30-45 minutes of exercises and at least 12-15 glasses of water everyday to flush out the body toxins.

    Motivation - without motivation you can't control your eating habits or get more active. When you want something bad enough, you'll figure out a way to get it. If you want to lose weight you just need to have the desire and motivation to figure out what your body needs to make it happen.

    Keep a food log.  You will undoubtedly be much more successful losing weight if you actually realize what you eat and how much you eat on a daily basis.  Believe it or not you'd probably be very surprised!

    If I need to burn a few pounds I like to keep it simple and eat nothing but fruit for breakfast. That works for me to drop a couple of pounds without turning my life upside down.

    Hundreds of studies show it comes down to calories in calories out.

    Body composition is based on your macronutrient intake.

    To help you in losing weight, maybe it would be wise to look for other means to curb your cravings apart from using a weight loss patch. According to USDA studies, adults who are overweight have the tendency of eating more calories during the night compared to adults who weigh normally, but they only eat slightly more of the calories at other times during the day. Another study done by the University of Texas shows that it is easier to overeat during the night, basically because the late-night snacking seem to be not as satisfying as snacking during the day. Other studies even say that a lot of people eat up to about 50% of their total calories for the day at night. This would tell you that your cravings during the night has a very big impact on your weight loss goals and overall health.
