I do agree with this too. In my younger days I did sometimes lose a few pounds of somethng (hoepfully fat) when I would start working out. I was very thin already though so usually I would get to a point where I would gain muscle (which would result in more pounds on the scale)
Working out is definitely a great tool towards health for many people. I personally love it. But it really was never a long term solution to weight loss for me. And when I was quite a bit overweight and worked out faithfully for quite some time (willing to even put in many hours per day), it was giving me muscle, but it wasn’t creating weight loss very fast, tahts for sure.....
I’m sure there wre many factors coming into play however.

There's been a lot of stuff like this lately - it's based on the premise that exercise makes us hungrier, and so we overcompensate and eat more than we otherwise would. That's not been my experience. For example, over a three month period, I exercised consistently for about an hour each day (and I don't mean just going for a walk, but hard, interval-based training) and concurrently lost 14 pounds of fat. In my estimation, my calorie deficit was split about equally between extra activity and less food. The problem with this kind of research is that it overlooks individual commitment to a program, and methods, like Fast-5, that can be brought to bear to avoid such problems, if a person is determined and well-informed. Of course, that's a big part of what support groups like this are about.
