So, I've found that book on amazon, and here are the reviews. The reviews just seem really off. One review said she only worked out four times in six months and lost forty pounds.

what would you say to folks that it is not calories in/out or exercise that assists in weight loss?

That just isn't true.

Body chemistry isn't that simple. Especially when you factor in various health issues people may have.

Here's an article on the on going studies: http://www.wired.com/2014/08/what-makes-us-fat/

Here's a write-up that should help explain the logic. This specifically addresses your question: http://authoritynutrition.com/debunking-the-calorie-myth/

Health expert Jonathon Bailor wrote a NYT Bestseller called. "The Calorie Myth": http://www.amazon.com/The-Calorie-Myth-Exercise-Weight/dp/0062267337

Last, health coach Sam Altman regularly tracks and blogs experiments in eating. Here is a link to his 5000 calorie challenge where he overeats while his waist size goes down and he doesn't add fat. Key is WHAT he eats, not the caloric content!: http://live.smashthefat.com/why-i-didnt-get-fat/

Thanks for asking. Msg me if you want to chat more about it. I've got lots of n=1 and anecdotes as well.

The calorie myth is one of the most insidious myths of the current nutritional dogma

Don't know why you are getting downvoted, as what you are saying is pretty much true.

explains a bunch. Yes, it has the normal sales pitch, etc. It also spends the first half of the book going over a bazillion (maybe a bit of hyperbole there) studies that show calories in / calories out is false.

It's not too late. Stop listing to everyone who tells you to just eat less. That's not healthy, and it's not a permanent way to lose weight, which is why you yo yo dieted. It's about the quality of your food.

Take a look at this book. It really made me reject the whole calorie deficient fat loss method. He basically recommends only:

  • Any sort of lean meat/fish,
  • Non starchy vegetables
  • Citrus fruits and berries

    It's very similar to keto, except with a few more carbs. The author also has plenty of youtube videos.
