A lot of people do?
Right now I'm approx 182lbs and 10% body fat. In December I was almost 190lbs and similar body fat(didn't have calipers at the time). Due to a wrist injury (Triangular fibrocartilage complex tear) I wasn't able to lift for about 12 weeks. My intake dropped almost immediately, and I don't count calories. I was down to 174lbs when I started lifting again.
4000-4500 calories/day costs more than 3000-3500 calories/day. That part is fact.
Your argument seems to imply that we all are already fat or over-eating.
