It is easy and painless. Pretty much everyone has the willpower to be able to order the medium sized McDonalds meal rather than the large (or the large instead of the super-sized). Or to use smaller sized plates when eating at home.
People don't stick to it because the results aren't very visible and they aren't fast. Not because it is difficult.
If you are 60 pounds overweight and somebody tells you to simply eat a little less and in 4-5 years you will be a healthy weight is that really going to motivate you to change?
