You are ignorant.

It is not “calories in...calories out”. Read up.

It is how your body handles fat, protein, and carbohydrates.

Our nation’s overweight problems are linked to our increased consumption of convenience foods and other foods that are high in carbohydrate counts.

It is no more possible to eat fewer calories than you burn and not lose weight than it is to let go of an item and not have it fall to earth.

the timing and content of consumption can make a difference, by physics is physics.

Does your reading repeal the first law of thermodynamics? I think it is you who needs to read more.

Our nation is overweight because we're consuming more energy than we burn. It has a lot to do with a sedentary lifestyle. Sitting around eating crap while playing video games results in a much different outcome than running around outside until you are forced to come home and eat dinner.

As a nation, we consumed huge quantities of carbohydrates a few generations ago, yet obesity was rare. That's because we worked like hell and burned it off. Our genes haven't changed, but our lifestyle has. Focusing on the source of the calories is just another distraction brought to you by people with an agenda that involves politics or taking your money. Same as it ever was.
