When reducing calories to achieve the caloric deficit, its imperative that you maintain some kind of exercise program at the same time. If you dont exercise your weight loss will be short lived, because your body eventually (within a few weeks) will recognize youre eating less and will start taking measure to reduce your basal metabolic rate. And then poof there goes you caloric deficit, and your weight loss - unless you start eating even less.
This is a death spiral to failure. Eventually you'll be depriving your body of critical nutrients to stay healthy, and the reduction in BMR usually comes from muscle cannibalization.
Its critical to understand the effects of metabolic adaptation. Calorie restriction is only part of the answer. It has to be combined with exercise to prevent (or slow down) metabolic adaptation for sustained weight loss. An you want your body burning fat, not cannibalizing muscle. You ever seen really obese people only eating salads, but they just sit around all day and stay fat? This is why.

Enjoying life is more important to me than being at a perfect body weight. I m 65, slow jog 3 miles every day, do fairly heavy isometric resistance training 3 days a week, play golf (without a cart) twice a week, cut my grass with a push mower, and occasionally just take a nice relaxing walk. I m 5 10 and have maintained a body weight of 205 for the past year with this routine and I pretty much eat whatever I want within reason. I d say my diet is about 70% clean and 30% crappy and I don t count calories. My goal is 90/10 but I m not there yet and may never be. I exercise plenty so the only way I m going to get rid of my moderate love handles is with diet. I ve tried but I don t have the willpower and just wind up miserable every time. I just don t worry about it anymore.

This isn't really a scientifically accurate test. Our bodies are going to create carbon dioxide while at rest. So unless you wear the mask while at rest to determine a baseline, you're not really measuring how many calories your body is burning from the exercise ALONE. There's a really good TED Talk on this. Our bodies convert fat into carbon dioxide and water at a known ratio so the mask can be fairly accurate by measuring only the carbon dioxide output.
Edit: By the end of the video this is addressed.

Dude, I always thought our bodies have an efficiency factor and of all the things one eats, only a percent is absorbed in calories. Have you considered that too or I'm making a mistake?
Cause I know skinny dudes who eat 10x as much as I do but don't gain weight half of me! I have to go to gym at least 3-4 times a week to maintain a moderate fram!

Well that certainly makes me feel better about my diet. It's a lot easier to burn off. If someone tries to steer me toward a McDonald's meal (which I haven't had in ages) because it's quick and convenient I'll think about his video and make that a hard pass. Thank you!

Hamburgers are still one of the better and easy way to grow some meat on the butt and chest if one need to bulk up and gain some weight. But of course all things must be in moderation and not in etremes and excess and must couple with rest and exercises too.

Jeremy dropped this after i just gain 15pound after a cheat day. Seems like I have to spend an entire week to burn this looking at how hard they they have to burn a single bigmac

One of the best things you can do is not make friends with people who eat at McDonalds.
Consuming poison shows a severe lack in judgement, or extremely weak discipline.

I literally was saying this exact thing yesterday. I told a friend go to the gym burn 300 calories and see just how hard it is to burn off those 2 cookies
