I kid you not..I witnessed a NFL receiver eat a 16 oz jar of jam for his post workout carb replacement and he followed a high carb diet and he is one of the most shredded human beings on the planet.

Very rare, not even 1% of the population could attain it! Sometimes drug enhanced, plus the best genetics in the world! There will always be exceptions to any rule! When I was in college wrestling, power lifting, swimming, racquetball, chasing girls all day and night, I could eat or drink anything, carried 10% body fat at 310 pounds. When I stopped working out and kept eating I packed on lots of pounds (of fat and lost muscle). So I do feel exercise is good for you. But I think you are both talking extremes. A fat person that does anything ie; weight lifting, walking, running, ect... is going to see a benefit! Going from nothing to something always seems to work. Their bodies will adapt at some point. That is where the argument seems end up anyway! Even with progressive overload, you will reach a point of adaptation. You can only lift so much weight is a certain amount of time. So do whats right for yourself, if weight loss for you doesn't involve exercise great, it does for me, thats great too. We are all different and this has been talked to death. Everyone needs to find out what and how much works for them.
