People have been banging that drum for decades, meanwhile the developed world is becoming increasingly obese. It's quite clear that telling people they should just eat less doesn't work.
Well, it does. I don't like to feed the myth believed by overweight people that they won't lose weight if they simply started eating 2000 kCal/day. It's psychologically hard, sure (for some) but it would work.
However, it's often easier to eat "nothing" than a little -- especially of high-carb products. It's easier to eat no tortilla chips than to have "just one".
And getting used to a np-food period of the day similarly helps to stop the cravings.
