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.

But is their body burning more calories? Just because you restrict your calories and say go by the average of your body naturally burning 1400 calories a day. How do you know your body is actually burning that amount of calories each day? Many people who go on calorie restricted diet's don't put in the physical work to ensure they are burning the calories.
The best part about debating anything that involves the human body is that their is so many "unknown" factors.
