I prefer the other theory I've heard: the body's gauge on starvation is not based on caloric intake, but based on nutritional intake; ergo, low nutrition diets that have sufficient calories (such as the Standard American Diet) make the body think winter is coming soon, and time to get extra plump.
This is mainly the basis of my dieting. I reached a peak of 340, and in exactly a year, while maintaining the same CICO, but changing from the SAD to strict non-Keto Paleo, became 214, and then eventually slimmed down to the 175-185 range.
I now eat mainly focused on nutritional density, and keeping the weight off is easy.
