One can gain weight without the calories, and countless people, me included, can confirm that. The "
calories in/ calories out" line is not supported by evidence; in other words, it is
not true.
It is surprising how much people hold on to the "calories in / calories out", given that even outside of medication side effects, everybody has observed folks who:
- eat little and weigh much,
- eat little and weigh little,
- eat much and weight little, and,
- eat much and weigh much.
These observations should be sufficient to bury the "calories in / calories out", but... oh well.
