Dieting is more about therapeutically soothing one’s self. The black box CICO is a good foundation but people eat because their emotions, cognition and somatic experience tell them they need to. Dieting is one of the hardest things people do because it’s a long effort process, however I believe there’s ways to do it easier. I haven’t solved the dieting problem completely for myself but I feel like I am close.
I’d suggest people now to look at the immunity to change process in the book “right weight, right mind” and also do therapy with a therapist you trust on the issue if it remains significant and a battle.
What are your thoughts on this 5 years later?

Thank you for following up.
I think your answer is somewhat orthogonal to the original post. Do you still think people lie about it?
