There was a British show a few years back where they had private detectives follow around volunteers who claimed they were obese despite "barely eating anything." 100% of the time they were eating way more than they reported. I also got to see this phenomenon firsthand when a friend told me her medication made her gain massive amounts of weight... while she drank about 700 calories in sodas and Starbucks. Over about 30 minutes. My pancreas shuddered just watching her.
People just aren't that great at tracking their calorie intake. That's all it is. No mystery to it.
