I think what this thread is starting to outline as a truth self evident is that its different for everyone. Physiologically and just as important psychologically. It'll come down to a lot of factors, even your genealogy but the only constant is that calorie deficit is required. How that manifests is up to the individuals needs.
I'm drastic calorie deficit, all calories are good calories and a lot of stubbornness. Means I lose weight quickly and I am motivated by that.
Was in the cafe on my ride today, 3.5 hour gravel ride and my mate had a bacon roll and a cake. I stuck with a cup of tea. He thought I was mad but I know what works for me. I feel better already, 4 days in.
