Here in Canada food is somehow regulated unlike the USA. We don't have as much variety of food versus the USA but we do have some fat asses around especially in the office.

There are many factors beyond calories in calories out. This method does work but will vary with people to people.

everyone has the potential to be fit and healthy but some people just don't want it enough and aren't willing to do what they have to do

Yup, and eating is 80% of it.. Eat portions no bigger than what you could fit in your two hands, bowled, that's all you need to do. And otherwise if you want to eat, a LOT, you'll need to sustain a high level fitness regime..

Just because the government regulates portion sizes, it doesn't prevent people from getting fat or the fat continuing to be fat.

I know I have ordered a couple burgers or a couple meals before at a restaurant. It just costs a little more to continue to eat

Body weight is also all about basal metabolic rate.

I carb cycle to keep my metabolism up and stay leaner... best days are high carb days . ...donut days

skinny fat people typically are too focused on losing weight and not eating/lifting optimally.

Yes.

My sister in law has PCOS. This means she has problems losing weight. Her hormones have made up their mind and she can be at the gym for months but only shed a few pounds.

My mum has thyroid problems. She works out like mad but her weight is at a set point. She cannot seem to go below it.

I seem to disagree with a couple people on here. I think exercise can definitely compensate for bad eating habits. I also think that good eating habits can nearly negate a non-active lifestyle.

The best is when you combine them.

I also have a friend that is incredibly obese. She eats like a mouse and runs 5 miles a day. Some health condition that I cannot remember but it is impossible for her to lose weight. I feel bad sometimes cause I run less, eat WAY more and am pretty fit.

There are exceptions to most rules, especially when it comes to being fit and losing weight. Marginally poor eating habits can be negated by exercise, when it comes to weight. Not when it comes to health, and no amount of healthy eating will replace 30 min of exercise a day when it comes to fitness.

If one is content with being unfit and at a "healthy weight" a good diet is all they need.
If one wants to be fit and not worry about weight, plenty of exercise is all they need.
If one wants to be a healthy weight and fit, a balanced diet and regular exercise is the prescription.
If one wants to be a healthy weight and exceptionally fit, they need a diet tailored to their goal and exercise regimen.

Women have it the worst because at around 40 yrs of age (post-hitting "The Wall") their bodies add fat in order to keep estrogen levels high. Add lifestyle changes, age, stress, and you have significant weight gain.

Disagree that women have it worst.

After ~35 years of age, men begin suffering gradual decline in testosterone, that continues until death. Decline in testosterone leads to fat gain, decline in sex drive, loss of lean body mass, hair loss, increase in estrogen levels, psychological and emotional changes, and a wealth of other issues.

Men and women both have it bad, but both are so different to say one sex has it worse than the other.

Ya all those things happen, but IMO it's nowhere near as bad as what happens to women.

Men, physical fit especially, can mitigate some of those things, but women really can't.

That works until you hit 40-45. Age related reduction in metabolism along with stiffer tendons/ligaments (reduce your ability to do work) make it more difficult to burn more than you consume.
