So the people struggling to lose weight just don’t actually want to lose weight? There are no psychological factors involved at all, no hormones, genetics, environmental factors, education - nothing to figure out?

Are you not aware of what “simplest” means?

Did I say that measuring calories is the end-all, be-all of nutrition and dietary knowledge?

Don’t put words in my mouth.

  You did say CICO is the only thing you need.

    Please point to another mechanism by which weight is lost.
    
    Proper intake of vitamins, minerals, and essential nutrients is above the scope of what we’re discussing.
    
    Proper nutrition is absolutely able to be maintained at a caloric level that would facilitate weight loss.
    
    Stop arguing in bad faith.

    Sounds like goalposting to me.

    Type 1 diabetics, without treatment, can consume vast amounts of food (and hence as a result calories) and yet continue to waste away. How do you explain this with CICO?
