I'd love to see some stats of the long-term history of a populace's BMI over time. If this is a biology thing, we shouldn't be getting fatter as a population, but it sure doesn't look like that's the case.
I pretty much blame it all on the food we have available these days. So much oversugared, process garbage. We don't have a chance.
Also, seems to me if you stop drinking your calories you'll have a hard time eating enough food to reach your caloric limits. Oversimplification, sure, but if people stuck to that one rule I think they'd be amazed at what they see, on average.
