Weight loss is as simple as calories in, calories out. If you have a negative daily calorie balance you will lose weight, if not you will gain. Regardless of what you eat.
That being said if you eat a daily diet of junk and fast-food, but remain under your daily calorie needs you will lose weight, but you will not feel very well and overtime your body will become drained of energy. Which will eventually lead to a calorie surplus due to the low-activity levels because of the poor diet.
Research from Harvard's lab has looked at all diets (high protein, low fat, low carb, etc.) and they all produced the same results as calories in, calories out.
Most people report that they eat healthy, but research has shown that only 15% of the population accurately reports their portion sizes. This is where the "healthy" eaters who struggle to lose weight mess up, their portions are too large.
So how do you ensure that you are in a negative calorie balance. The two easiest ways are to cut down on your portion sizes and record what you eat each day, using a system like dotFIT.
