[quote=Anonymous]Ugh, formatting! Let me try again. “Calories in calories out” IS true but HOW your body uses calories is quite individual. That is, your particular levels of ghrelin, leptin, body fat, and the sensitivity of your insulin response is unique, shaped by both genetics and your lifetime history of eating (and sleeping). This is why one person can feel full after a slice of pizza and another needs four to feel full — and why one person will lose weight on 1600 calories but someone else will need to drop to 1400. I think this is what people mean when they say CICO doesn’t explain things. It’s also the reason why some people (but certainly not all!) find it so much easier to lose weight on a low carb diet, especially if they have naturally lower levels of ghrelin and borderline high blood sugar.[/quote]
