I was a sportsman all my life and always ate very much (until today). I always loved good life and good food, and I always eat for two. :-) I never gained one gram of weight until ... There comes an age when metabolism doesn't work the way it always did. This is what happened. Game over. :-D I added 15 kilos in 2 years (from 75 to 90 kg, sorry for the metrics).

Well said. This article I think is geared towards stupid fat americans - the ones that go to McDonalds and order a big mac with large fries and a DIET coke. Ive maintained my weight thru simple math over the years. I just make sure that I eat a balanced diet and indulge in moderation. I dont even drink coke or sugery "sports" drinks. And of course I hit the gym 4 times a week at least. But they do raise a couple of interesting points in that article. Yup. Well said.

Even if you did drink the coke, its arguable whether it really is pointless as there's many more benefits from doing exercise then just weight loss. doing exercise is always better then not doing exercise, and I don't think anyone would argue against that. thats stupid… maybe if you’re drinking coke or something, but drink some good old water after the run (which is what you should be drinking after exercise anyway) and caloric intake is 0, thus rendering the ‘truth’ that quote is intending to make false.
