Pooping out excess calories is not usually what people mean by “calories out” in CICO


Right, because excreted calories are typically consistently small for most people.

That’s not necessarily true for diabetics, so someone with that condition will have a different experience with it.


And the reason is only the missing of one hormone, and fat cells won't store energy. The opposite also true, there are people with too much insulin that will gain allot weight.

> Despite intensive research, the causes of the obesity epidemic remain incompletely understood and conventional calorie-restricted diets continue to lack long-term efficacy.

“Get diabetes” is certainly a novel approach to a weight-loss plan, I’ll give you that.
