I know you're sort of joking, but metabolism is extremely badly understood (most is not understood at all), and different people extract different amounts of ATP from food than others, that's just a verifiable fact. And eating less will make you lose weight, but how much less depends on, you guessed it, metabolism... So just saying "eat less" isn't very helpful IMO.

And it has not really anything close to do with thermodynamic laws, or you Had to have the emc2-gene for it to matter, thats all.

It's like relativity physics and car driving, it does intersect, but really not in any meaningful way.

My point is people get too hung up on "how much less depends on, you guessed it, metabolism... So just saying "eat less" isn't very helpful IMO." That they forget "And eating less will make you lose weight"

That's my whole point. You gotta eat less if you want to lose weight and you can dig around in the science and semantics of it all you want but the bottom line doesn't change.

Sure, but it's not like people don't know that, right? My take is sport, ditching sugar and so on will help you to eat less. Another thing is that the body reacts differently when you eat fat and sugar at the same time versus eating sugars, then later eating the fat. You are not wrong but there are many ways to get to the "eat less" IMO.

You're just crying about phrasing then.
