As someone who helps people lose fat professionally, I can say with near 100% confidence this will have almost zero effect on the vast majority of people.
People were lean long before calorie counts were readily available, the problem people have is NOT lack of awareness of the number of calories in their food.
The problem is philosophical — if you think all edible substances qualify as “food,” you’re never going to lose weight and keep it off.
If you think you should only be consuming whole foods the VAST majority of the time, then you will lose weight and keep it off relatively effortlessly.
