Yeah it's pretty sketchy to stretch the claim that far based on their data. It's also just a hard sell when you can very easily observe the typical caloric intake of professional athletes and note how high it can get without any sign of obesity. But the general point still does seem to stand, you can't just start working out and expect to lose a bunch of weight without also adjusting what you eat.
