Your welcome! For an educated crowd, your dietary knowledge is embarrassingly antiquated.[/quote]
I think people have a real emotional investment in the thing they learned 20-30 years ago, and if it’s a thing that has worked for them, they’ll make the assumption that it works for everyone.

I like how they jump immediately to a 1000 calorie diet for what someone allegedly couldn’t be obese on. Not many adults follow a 1000 calorie diet, so it’s not really a realistic example. [/quote]

No, it’s not realistic in our current world, but I think we could all agree that if an adult was forced to only eat 1000 calories a day, they would lose weight (and eventually starve to death) because it’s less calories than they are using. There’d be variations, but the ultimate end result would be the same.

It’s bleak, but it’s also CICO. [/quote]
It's not just bleak, it defeats the purpose. Why a person wants to lose weight to begin with? There are many answers, but I bet starving to death or wracking health to the point of no return is rarely on the list 
So yeah, CICO works if the number on the scale for the short period of time is the only thing that matters[/quote]

CICO also works for weight maintenance. If CI = CO you get maintenance. If CI &gt; CO you get gain. If CI &lt; CO you get weight loss.
