I wouldnt claim that fat satiation causes someone to eat fewer calories either.
But I disagree that the quote you presented somehow claims that a person can lose weight while not being in a deficit. It's physically impossible. That doesn't mean other processes aren't going on, or that you shouldn't consider other things like macronutrients and micronutrients when trying to construct a "healthy" diet.
- gamblor956 7y agoIt's definitely possible to lose weight without being in a deficit of calories. For example, insufficient protein (or protein precursors like amino acids) can cause the breakdown of muscle, which is denser and weighs more than fat. You'd have to have a sizable excess of calories to have the fat storage to cancel out the loss of muscle mass.

- leshow 7y agoI would love for you to show me a study that validates this, I just don't think the effect would be all that significant, especially if you're controlling for calories. Sure, your body comp can change, but I would expect weight to be stable. Feel free to post some pubmed studies if you like.
