    So why don't we just take the fatties and put them in thermal generators? Clearly their bodies require no calories in to maintain their calories out, so they can be a wonderous new clean energy source.

    If you think 2000 calories of processed foods will react in your body the same way as 2000 calories of wholefoods/vegetables then you are a certified fool.

      Calories are a measure of energy, they are literally all the same fricking thing. Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred. If you consume 2000 calories of sugar (simple carbs) and 2000 calories of whole wheat (complex carbs), you are literally consuming the same amount of energy. It doesn’t matter if one converts faster or slower. 2000 calories is always 2000 calories. How those calories are spent will largely be determined by how much you move.

        So? The question is if it is a valid measure and if all calories are actually interchangeable.

          It's a valid measure. No-one with any credibility or standing in nutrition science or fitness has ever claimed that all calories are interchangeable. This is a strawman.
          If CICO adherents thought all calories were interchangeable then they wouldn't eat protein would they?

          No, the body is very complex and it's not a simple A minus B equals C equation, but nor is there a mechanism for fat fricks to remain fat fricks (or get even fatter) if they're continually in a caloric deficit, as many of them claim they are.

        NTA but thermic effect becomes significant when you look at a whole grain vs simple sugar.
        What the Anti-CICO cultists ignore is that these differences in how foods are digested and utilised can only ever lead to your body gaining FEWER calories than the food contained, not more.

        It takes more energy to digest 2000kcal of whole wheat than 2000kcal of sugar, but 2000kcal of sugar can never become 3000kcal of energy in your body.

        And by what they are. If it's not giving you energy to do said movement and protein to recover from it then it will lower your caloric needs and obviously make you fat. This doesn't disprove cico though because in the end you got fat by taking in too many calories.

        The idea that what you eat can change how your body works doesn't disprove CICO.
        If you drive your car at 60mph you will get better mileage than if you drove at 120mph. You can burn the same amount of fuel but travel a different distance, because driving at 120mph is less efficient than 60mph.

      Purely in terms of energy, yes, it is. There are other differences, of course, mainly what other nutrients are in it and how easy it is to digest, but whether you eat 2000 kcal of pure sugar or 2000 kcal of veggies makes no difference to the total weight gained.

        Carb insulin model is shit. You can do keto, high carb, fricking McDonald's for all I care. If you're in a caloric deficit, you will lose fat.

        High satiety, low calorie foods are the easiest way to lose weight though. Potatoes, veggies, chicken, berries, etc. Eating less carbs will make you hold less water which can cause more rapid weight loss initially, but it's not actually fat loss. Just less glycogen in the body so the muscles and liver hold less water.

    Calories are a measurement of heat energy. So therefore it's not a measurement of the energy you will derive from food you consume. You are not a bomb calorimeter.

        Great study, except by only tracking "weight gain" and not measuring calorie expenditure and not measuring LBM/FFMI we can't use this n=1 case study to say anything of substance.
        Perhaps the fat gain was similar on each diet but during the low-carb phase, glycogen levels were lower leading to less water retention. Perhaps the high carb diet was high in refined carbs which have a low thermic effect.

        Because this study doesn't track calories OUT we can't use it to draw any inclusions about CICO.

    Rates of obesity going up don't disprove the underlying theory, only the practical measures being taken
    Which is obvious, because you tell a fat c**t "eat less" and they don't do it - that doesn't mean it wouldn't work if they did
    Obesity will only be cured when a pill that shreds fat is created - but would-be fatties will still die prematurely because they'll simply down these pills by the bucketload and use them to be able to binge food that will kill them anyway
    It would be cured if we can eugenically remove the fat-causing genes from the pool, meaning the genes that make fatties unable to refuse food, the weakness genes

Restricting his calories to produce a 30-pound weight loss would cause severe hunger and his metabolism would slow down, setting the stage for weight regain.

    But this is just fricking wrong. If he lost 30lbs (real weight, not water and muscles) his body would not require as many calories to maintain his size. The "hungry" being referred to here is probably talking about being in a deficit in order to lose the weight. It's written like the man is going to need to starve himself in order to maintain that 165lb weight.

            Do you know what a metabolism is? It's literally just how many calories your body burns to maintain it's current size. It's not some magic process that determines how fat you are. Losing weight means the body requires less calories to maintain it's smaller size. Therefore the "metabolism slows down". Most of the people in the chart have other problems causing them to eat so much. It's not genetics.

                you dont need an 100% accurate measurement of TDEE to be able to lose weight with CICO.
                whats funny is that most CICO people know this, yet still lose weight with CICO, and its still being used in research as the standard measurement of energy intake and expenditure, and its still accurate enough to do it well, consistently
                And all the anti-CICO people do is refer to some absolute insane, unrealistic scenario. that has no basis in reality to try to disprove it.

        Yes. Maybe he has to eat even less than his twin and move even more than his skinny twin. Oh well. Life's not fair. He should also go to an endocrinologist, but at the end of the day, if he wants to get skinny, eating less will do it.

          The correct answer was to change the type of food he's eating. Even if the macros are the same, powdered or blended food causes a different hormonal reaction.

              If two genetically identical life forms can eat identical amounts of calories with identical nutrient compositions and have different levels of obesity it makes CICO theory impossible.

              This clearly demonstrates that only hormonal theory is possible. The mice have different body composition because of hormone reaction to the food.

      Semaglutide has a ton of side effects like nausea. And it lowers the amount of glucose produced by the liver (i.e. less carbs in the carb/insulin model).

          I don't think you understand how proof and knowledge work. I posted proof that CICO is false. I believe that the hormonal theory is true because none of the available evidence excludes it. It's probably true because it withstands all tests thrown at it. You can't really prove a positive assertion you just have to test and see if it can be proven false.

          I have never seen anything from your type which can refute the carbohydrate insulin model. You just throw out misleading garbage like the semaglutide claim even though we can more directly study insulin by injecting literal insulin. You're dishonest.

And no a few cherry picked case reports is not equivalent. Arguably the only benefit on the rice diet was due to the weight loss from massive caloric restriction but its impossible to say for sure as there's no proper research

                Im amazed of your stupidity. do you really think theres no other interactions that happens in the body when you eat, vs having insulin injected?

              lmfao its like clockwork with you people. If this rice diet is so wonderful why has there never been an RCT showing its beneficial? And no a few cherry picked case reports is not equivalent. Arguably the only benefit on the rice diet was due to the weight loss from massive caloric restriction but its impossible to say for sure as there's no proper research

    >National data on energy intake and energy availability show increases between 1961 and 2000, during modern industrialization of food; but a plateau or declines thereafter—even as obesity continued rising—and while physical activity modestly increased. Thus, Americans appear to be eating relatively less since 2000, for ever-increasing body sizes, as time has progressed.

    This quote is from the article you posted

    "SO, IS THE carbohydrate-insulin model more correct than energy balance thinking? Unfortunately, the definitive research needed to resolve this controversy has not been done, in part because alternative paradigms for obesity have not been taken seriously."
