One thing that is glossed over in this paper is the insulin-carb cycle, which affects obese people differently. When sugars are free in the blood stream, body fat gets preferential treatment in absorbing the extra blood sugar and converting it into more fat over everything except the brain, heart and lungs. Quick Edit: Muscles that currently have glycogen depletion seem to have precedence over fat cells This makes sense as in a normal body it's more akin to recharging the batteries so that you have energy on standby once your muscles burn through their glycogen stores. But, body fat in obese people is more like a parasite than an energy store, and since our body never destroys the fats cells it has created, even losing the weight means carrying around a hungry parasite that will feed itself any excess that you consume and will make you want to consume excess all of the time since insulin disrupts the Ghrelin hormone that indicates satiety. Its why you can put weight back on so much more quickly if you were previously fat than if you were trying to gain weight. Any form of diet and exercise alone will not resolve this issue. The only thing we have for now is to use liposuction or RF modulation to kill or remove the excess fat cells from the body, surgically excising the parasite from you.
