Of course not!
But, I did come up with an idea inspired by weight watchers. See, When Mrs. Evil decided to do weight watchers I started looking at their point system. At it's heart, WW is simply a calorie restriction diet. It let's you have all kinds of terrible food and followed strictly will help you lose weight, even without exercise.
Unfortunately, a good chunk of what you will lose is muscle if you simply restrict calories and eat sugary foods for your point values. They do assign lower point values to foods with good nutritional profiles but reward low fat high sugar foods way too much.
Anyway, with weight watchers, a point is essentially 50 calories. If you are eating high protein, low sugar foods a modified point system can be useful.
Think about it. If you want to eat a 4,000 calorie diet you could come up with a similar point system and eat 80 points per day.
Want to cut? move down to 50 points per day.
I think this could be another book NeedTo...
