Run 10 km 4 times a week and you will loose weight. Try it or your money back!

No.

I ran 10km three times a week and didn't lose a pound. <https://np.reddit.com/r/running/comments/1vq3k1/should_i_do_...> Every bit of my weight loss has always come from counting calories.

Thats why I’m saying you need to run four times ;-)

But jokes aside, not doing sports and only counting calories will make you loose muscles pretty fast. This will lower your baseline of calorie consumption of your body. So when you stop counting calories you will grow even more fat than before.

If you don’t loose weight from running then most probably you are increasing your calorie intake unconsciously. This overeating happens sometimes when people do sports.

Good luck getting an obese person to do that
