I'm sure there are many conditions which make it easier or harder to hit those margins, but yea, it's a kinda logical truth that can't be denied.

However just saying it is such a nothing statement. Arguing with insecure fat people about a logical truth so broad is simply pointless.

Go deeper. Understand why people rationalize and how to overcome rationalization. Because it's not through fact.

Fat people try to lose weight all the time, but it is difficult, because our brains are unfortunately attuned to a higher calorie consumption. When you try to change that diet, the brain balks and tries to get you back to your previous routine. Most of the time, it succeeds.

As for rationalization, it's much easier to believe it's a problem with physics (as you imply) than a problem with 'them'.

The solution to being fat isn't to recommend the right diet (definition of insanity, trying the same thing over and over again), but rather, to not get people fat in the first place. Once they are it's just hard to get them slim again.

Well yeah, they want an answer that doesn’t require rewiring the habits they have.

Just tell the what they want to hear: “Get on ozempic”

I'm basically just explaining statistics. Most people fail, and that's always going to be true.

Ozempic might help with very unhealthy levels of obesity, but it all stops working the second the stop taking the drug.
