Maybe I'm lucky but dieting doesn't seem that difficult. I've started charting my weight based on info in The Hackers Diet. I have found that as long as I think about what I eat I don't need to count calories to maintain a weight loss rate of between 1.5 and 2 pounds a week.
Well this guy is described as particularly tall and lean. I don't know about your build, but by that logic you'd have a negative mass after a few years.
