How do you account for the fact that people can lose weight by increasing the number of calories that they consume while reducing their exercise if they eat only ground beef and sardines?

1) [citation needed]

2) Limiting what kind of food you eat usually leads to limiting how much you eat. Feel free to try this with eating only lentils, beans and broccoli, you can eat as much of it as you want.

Just try it -- eat ground beef and sardines for a week and see if you lose weight. Eat as much of it as you want.

That's not really any sort of study on its effects, it's just anecdotal. Maybe it works for you but it's not generalizable.

That video is in r/conspiracy so it already tells me it's not as "guaranteed" as you think.

How do people holding such reasoning find their way here ? What's the incentive to stay ?
