Fancy a pepperoni pizza (900cal) instead of yet another grilled chicken breast salad (175cal) go and run/walk off 725 calories.
Thanks for the tips. Admittedly I have never paid the slightest bit of attention to how many calories my food would have, and know nothing about it really. I've been vegan for about 13 years, but still eat junk.. I'll need to start thinking about it more, and reading up on it. I also admit to not understanding parts of your post so I'll have to hit the Google tomorrow to learn.

So to loose weight, you don't need to run/walk at all! Just eat less than your TDEE.
*don't go silly as much more than 500-600 your body starts to adapt it's metabolism to try and stop you wasting away. You'll probably also succumb to cravings and scoff all of the deficit and then some, undoing all the work.
However it's easier to eat a balanced and varied diet, whilst also including all unhealthy foods you want to, if you have an extra few hundred calories from exercise to play with.
