Does anyone else kinda feel frustrated that they didn't know that all they had to do to lose weight was to be in a calorie deficit?

This might sound strange, but lemme explain. When I first started my weight loss attempts in the past, all the info I read online said that "calories don't matter" and that you had to do certain things instead such as "eating healthy" and "exercising more". I followed all the advice from "drink more green tea" to "don't eat late at night" and made some weight loss progress off course because these things indirectly put me in a calorie deficit. Then at some point, the weight loss stopped and I felt hella frustrated. I didn't understand because I was following every single rule. I couldn't understand how some people can eat "unhealthy" and not gain weight. I read a lot of bullshit that lead me to believe that the reason why im not losing fat is probably because of "toxins" in the not-so-organic fruits or the white rice that I eat often.

Then I finally found out a few months ago that the one and only thing that make ya lose weight is a calorie deficit. It was so frustrating to discover this thing because all this time I was mislead about this very simple and basic thing. Like why did this have to be so shrouded in mystery all this time? Calorie counting isn't exactly the most pleasant thing but at least by doing it im certain 100% that im losing fat.

This is truly a case where the truth set me free.
