    Unless you've been diagnosed with a specific medical condition, insulin issues are a result of obesity, not a cause of it.

    Calories in calories out doesn't hold water

    Yeah, those fundamental laws of physics are inconsistent little devils, aren't they?

    Now, if you'd said that estimating the actual amount of energy you consume and expend is wildly more complex than simply reading nutritional info labels and plugging your height and weight into an online calculator, I'd agree with you. But you didn't.

    Damn. I guess calorie deficit didn't work for me. Guess I'll JSF. Oh wait, I haven't been fat for a couple years.

    The situation described by the op doesn't sound like a problem to me.

    Sounds like a cheaper way to put on muscle after losing body fat.

    Great, your metabolism is slowed. Now you can gain while hitting the gym hard and not eating like a monster.
