“I always thought lack of exercise and too many calories was the cause. silly me”

Telling people who are overweight that they need to eat less and exercise more makes as much sense as telling people who are constipated that they need to eat less and poop more. It’s technically true, but it totally ignores consideration of the actual causes.

Telling people who are overweight that they need to eat less and exercise more makes as much sense as telling people who are constipated that they need to eat less and poop more.

Why, because people who consume less energy than they burn won't lose weight? Is that what you're suggesting?

It’s technically true

Say what? So if I consume less energy than I burn I WILL lose weight after all?

but it totally ignores consideration of the actual causes.

Huh? So the actual cause of weight gain has nothing to do with consuming more energy that you expend? But didn't you just say that this was the cause.....technically speaking?
