As I have explained the Move More part doesn't actually do much long term. So that's my problem with it. Fairly easy to understand. Again calories aren't even a good measurement to begin with, you aren't an engine or a fire. More like a fuel cell.
Cico is a ratio of two things. If you isolate one half and claim it doesn't work, you're no longer critiquing the method, your critiquing a thing you don't like and using that to claim the ratio doesn't work.
Even the eat less part isn't quite right. As it completely ignores why people eat too much in the first place, or how the body adapts to insufficient food. Trying to treat biology as a physics problem isn't going to work here.
