That's bs. Resection shows activity has little impact on obesity. You burn too few calories even with high levels of activity.
The difference in calories burned from a sedate person to an active person is less than that of a single small milkshake. There a plenty of heavy people who garden, walk, and even do daily high activity things like zumba. This strikes me as more stereotyping that fat people are lazy, and its demonstrably false.
That being said, activity has a high impact on overall health, which is why active overweight folks can be in better cardiac health than a sedate person who is at their recommended bmi.
It's mostly about what you eat. Calories matter, and how you get those calories matter, when gaining and losing weight.
