This is a stretch to me. Doesn't matter how much I exercise: aggressive keto diets are the only way I've ever lost weight (though not necessarily maintained it, I can maintain on a normal diet) in my life. Playing two games of full-court basketball a day or sitting around playing video games, I'm just not as hungry and the food I eat when I'm going that route just doesn't stick the way it can otherwise.
I certainly feel better, you're not wrong about that, when I exercise even moderately. But the diet matters plenty, too--it's yet another one of those more complicated in practice things that you're claiming exist in the first place.
