Whenever anyone would ask me how to lose weight, I always told them to eat less. For years I've been telling people it all boils down to calories eaten versus calories burned. Now the rest of the world finally seems to be catching up to me.

"I didn't do any exercise. I didn't work out. What I did do was eat less. I cut out all sweets, all desserts, and quit drinking during the week. I also ate a lot of popcorn. . .My 14 months is up, and I've lost 96 pounds." -- Ravenwood, December 2008.

"The bottom-line diet: Eat less." -- CNN Headline, November, 2010.
