“Diet and exercise are a small part of the solution”.

Sorry. That’s just insanity. Diet is the number 1 cause of obesity. To suggest otherwise ridiculous.

After all, if you stop eating altogether you become extremely skinny. And if you eat 5000 calories a day, you become extremely fat.

“ I meet with individuals every day who are doing everything right — eating healthy, exercising daily — and still seeing their weight trend up”

This is physically impossible. It’s not possible to eat healthy at a caloric deficit, exercise daily (properly) and still gain weight. The fact is, these individuals aren’t doing everything right. They just think they are.
