Weight loss is something you should go speak to a trainier or a nutritionist about.

There is no shortcut or product. It’s calories in, calories out based on your resting metabolism + activity. Do not eat processed foods.

Unprocessed whole foods, lots of fiber and micronutrients.

There is no one best specific diet for everyone. There is no one best specific exercise regime. You figure it out from trial and error.

We don’t need ads for this stuff.

How do you know about this? And how do you expect people who don't currently know this to learn about it?

Ads are a way to get someone with a product (which can include knowledge products like cico and diets) to be and to spread the word about those products.
