Aldo, for what it's worth, people generally conflate leaneness and weight with overall health. However, if you are eating only three donuts a day, you might lose plenty of weight but your health will shit. It's all a big balancing act.

I go back and forth with it, because thee are studies out there on how some people do far better on keto diets and others do far better on higher-carb diets... plus the body adjusting metabolism a bit as you mentioned.
And as someone who's tried to trim down the beer gut from time to time, I know how easy it is to underestimate calories in if you aren't anal about counting calories... but I think there's also some truth to it not being
simple either.
