| I have one of those metabolisms where if I eat more than what I need, I sweat a lot during the night and I never fatten.

− | The explaination is mistaken. It is indeed possible to eat and not gain weight, and well document and most parts of it understood by medicine. Excess energy is only stored as fat if the body is stressed, you can piss out the sugar or the intestines can absorb less. The problem with the idea is that is hard to impossible to correct what your body does in this regard which makes is a red herring for the already overweight.

Most of our energy consumed goes toward our basal metabolic rate, which does seem to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basal_metabolic_rate#Causes_of_individual_differences_in_BMR vary among individuals].
