A 250-calorie donut and a plate of eggs with vegetables have the same energy, but the eggs provide more protein, nutrients, and fullness. Weight loss comes down to eating fewer calories than you burn, not avoiding certain foods.

This is 250 calories of a sprinkled covered donut, and this is 250 calories of eggs and veggies. And people in the comment section will argue if the calories in these eggs are the same as the calories in this donut. For context, a calorie is just a unit of measurement of energy inside a food. Much like if you were to run a mile, whether you run a mile in the sand, on the pavement, or on the treadmill, it's Still a mile. The same thing goes for calories. This plate of eggs and veggies might give you more protein, more nutrients, more actual food volume than the donut. It'll probably keep you more full versus this donut is clearly less food. There's less nutrients, it's less filling, not gonna keep you full. But here's the thing, that doesn't make this plate of veggies good and this donut bad. Most people, when they're trying to lose weight, only eat clean and healthy food. And God forbid you eat something bad and then you think you ruined all of your progress. No, this is the beauty of understanding calories, because as long as you're in a CFD, a calorie fucking deficit, you can eat this donut here and not feel guilty and still make weight loss progress.
