Exactly. If calories in/ calories out doesn't work for everyone ... then maybe where those calories come from play a big role as well?

And I still don't agree that eating less would always result in less obesity. I know plenty of people who go on calorie restricted diets and never lose weight. But maybe that's the metabolism thing you were talking about?

I would counter that again with saying that it's most likely where their calories are coming from that are causing their 'slow metabolism'.

Anyway, interesting debate none the less.
