I'm my experience a surprising number of people believe their metabolism and amount they exercise are all to do with their weight gain and not CICO. Unless you're a bodybuilder you're gonna burn around 2000 kcal a day pretty much regardless of your regular activity level. Eat more than that and you gain weight, eat less and you lose it. It's literally the only way.
