I think the author had some very good, sensible advice, and what he posits as the reason people regain weight after losing it sounds logical. However, I was confused by his advice and it seemed as though he was talking out of both sides of his mouth. First he says that losing weight and keeping it off is as easy as deducting 10% of the calories you currently eat. Period.
However, he then goes on to advise taking 20 min to eat so you know when you're full, eating mindfully, swapping out brownies for yogurt or fruit, exercising, and generally making healthier food choices. That is all sensible, good advice, but it seems to me that if I made those food changes, I'd be eating far fewer calories than he originally advised. So, then I'd be on a diet, which is a big no-no according to him.
