You are correct. It's a huge mental change.
Weight loss is much more than simple math.

The *easy* part of the math, the part that everyone knows 
already, is understanding that one needs to burn more 
and/or eat less to lose weight.

That math is so trivially simple (and correct) that for 
people to repeat it, as advice, means they don't get it. 

I repeat: Anyone who says losing weight is as simple as
burning more and/or eating less, isn't worth talking
to, because they don't understand the problem at all.

You understand the problem.

The problem is not realizing one has to burn more and/or 
eat less. If it were that simple, nobody would be a BBW.
Everyone would be perfect.

The problem is that eating less and burning more requires
a *lot* of psychological management.

That's why there are sooooo many different diets out there.
They all make use of psychology. 

However, it's not even *that* simple.

If one psychological method worked to make people burn
more and eat less, we'd only need a single diet book
and everyone would be thin again.

So, everyone has to find the psychological method that
works for *them*!

For me, it's the ability to *easily* enter into my 
portable device the food I eat in general terms (e.g., 
1 large bowl of pasta, 1 8oz glass of milk, etc.), 
and then to have the application calculate the calories.

All the application has to do is summarize those 
calories per day against my weight-loss goals.

I don't see *why* every program I have tested needs
the Internet to do that. Why can't they just have a 
database like offline map programs do?
