So the people struggling to lose weight just don’t actually want to lose weight? There are no psychological factors involved at all, no hormones, genetics, environmental factors, education - nothing to figure out?
Please point to another mechanism by which weight is lost.
Type 1 diabetics, without treatment, can consume vast amounts of food (and hence as a result calories) and yet continue to waste away. How do you explain this with CICO?

Are you not aware of what “simplest” means?
Did I say that measuring calories is the end-all, be-all of nutrition and dietary knowledge?
Don’t put words in my mouth.
You did say CICO is the only thing you need.
Please point to another mechanism by which weight is lost.
Proper intake of vitamins, minerals, and essential nutrients is above the scope of what we’re discussing.
Proper nutrition absolutely able to be maintained at a caloric level that would facilitate weight loss.
Stop arguing in bad faith.
Sounds like goalposting to me.

Are you really arguing to include a disease in normal weight loss mechanisms?
What’s next, telling me all about how tapeworms help weight loss?
The fuck outta here.
If all you need to do, as you say, is to “burn more and eat less”, then how come people with T1D lose weight while eating more? It’s physics, right?
