NROL isn't a crap book.
You are correct about the EPOC and yeah there are a few things I personally disagree with in the book and even Alwyn has talked about as well from things he is learning now. However, the overall set up and structure is very solid even if some of the science and explanations are a little off and that is just because of how long it takes to get a book written, edited, and published so you can't really fault that.
Yes, it takes a decrease in calories to lose fat. Yes, this is the most important aspect. However, training has its place too.
Just find the program you like, keep the protein intake a priority, and keep moving.
