TLDR: The body has a setpoint for weight which is tuned to environmental conditions and will attempt to reach it by modulating hunger.
It takes 8-12 months for these hormones to reset, so any diet is ineffective unless permanently maintained.
High setpoint? Prepare to be ravenously hungry all the time if you eat below your hormonal baseline.

You can also apparently wear weights to lose weight for this reason.

That finding is pretty mind blowing!
