>>What kind of calories? Carbohydrates? Fats? The body treats them differently.
Your equation doesn’t include those of use that consume a lot of calories, and don’t spend a lot of time exersizing, and stay rail thin.<<
Statistical Outlier. There are some forms of calories that affect the formula more than others but overall the formula holds.
Wishful thinking “science” in weight loss is just that. Wishful thinking. Good for Dr. Nick infomercials at 1:00 AM.
Look at the show “Biggest Loser.” They do formulate the diets to be the most efficient for weight loss (and tailor it to the the individual). But it is the sweat that does the most (and most important) work.
Explains nothing. Describe a mechanism.

I love the Biggest Loser. I love the trainers and the mental changes plus the cameraderie between the contestants.
But still they are wrong.
Can Jillian, dolvett, and bob get and keep people thin by exercise and low fat? Yes. They are experts. They can. Eight hours of exercise a day.
Will these contestants, from shedding fat so quickly, end their lives with Lou gehrig’s, Parkinson’s, or alzheimers? Sadly, the chances are high. As with the people getting weight loss surgery. They are stressing their livers and lymph and other systems by forcing too much fat into their bloodstreams daily. It is definitely not healthy, though the transformations look great.
They could lose the same fat healthier by citing carbs and eating healthfully. Jillian knows this and would not stump for the yogurts filled with fake sugar and subway and what not. But she has two kids now so she could use the paycheck, plus her tough psychological approach is hugely fun to,watch and deep — those who don’t go through the mental transformation tend to gain all their weight back.
I’m a huge fan but their strategy is for quick transformations, not for lasting health.
