Apologies for the low resolution. It was a mobile ad and all I could get was a screenshot.

The way I interpret the comment is that they are saying "If you would eat normally, you couldn't be that thin."

It's a reference to the fact that energy cannot be destroyed, only transformed into a different form.

Which would only make sense if every human body processed every molecule ingested in the exact same way

Not really. Metabolism changes don't account for that large of a swing in your BMR unless you have a thyroid issue (which is treatable).

I've been in the same situation as the dude trying to justify that body type, and he's just not eating enough to be a healthy weight. You can't be 6'6" and eat the same amount of food as everyone else. You have to eat quite a bit more.

Except you might not be able to eat that much more if your body tells you you're full. There are a lot of factors to body weight, with studies suggesting a large genetic factor (40-70%. While theoretically you can (almost) always eat more/less and it'll affect your weight accordingly, the difficulty of actually doing that will vary heavily by individual.

It's something you have to train your body for.

"The way I interpret this comment is" if this is all there is to it, then we should all be the same weight all the time, apparently.

It's amazing what people think they can "interpret" about another whole entire anonymous human being they know literally nothing about, other than "thin."

These comments are totally proving the OC's point though.
