Firstly,thanks for motivational phases and your comment :) I am athlete(powerlifter) and i manage my weight, macros and etc.
Indeed, a lot of approach for weight loss. I agree with part of your comment. Actually, a lot of studies have shown either good calories tracking for weight management because all of macros stick with calories. Without starving, you will control your weight with full. I don't agree carbohydrate is too minimal while weight loss because it change person to person and when you are in diet your metabolic rate will slow therefore your weight loss slower than starting, even it may be stop.
To sum up of all of this, do exercise and control your portion and increase protein contents that will adequate for weight loss.
