It’s not a “counterpoint” to the actual answer though, it’s a sidenote.
You don’t know their circumstances. I can’t exercise effectively for various medical reasons so (for now) I only do caloric deficit and intermittent fasting. It’s slower than I’d like of course (and slower than OP wants, presumably) but it’s what I can do now.
For the last year I’ve been a primary wheelchair user, I can walk a bit but that only gets me to the bathroom. Since then my weight has become a bit of a problem but I’m already doing the maximum exercise I’m capable of. I have dropped 10 over the last few months just by diet, which is less than I would like but it’s what I can do.
You cant assume the “mad constraints” is just laziness without knowing the full picture. Either answer the question or scroll on, but its cruel to attack someone over what they can’t do.
Counterpoint: you can’t live any sort of halfway decent life “without exercise”
Different question though.
If someone says, “First things first, I want to sit still all day. Given that, how do I…” then it’s worth calling out their mad constraints.

Exactly!

You don’t improve quality of life by losing weight ‘quickly’ at all. Steady and sustainable are the only way, and exercise is part of that.
