The evidence that exercise and a moderate and varied diet has many health benefits is much stronger than the evidence that substantial long term weight loss (which is very rare) has many (if any) health benefits.
There are many studies where participants have been put on diet and exercise programs and the participants have experienced the same health benefits right across the group regardless of whether or not they lost weight, they all got the benefit.
So in my opinion, diet and exercise = good, not eating 2 cakes a day = good, just don't expect it to make you really slim in the long term.
After having a think about TDHT's response, the way she indirectly called into question my weight, habits and character and her eagerness to offer unsolicited advice I suspect she may make a living out of people's desire to lose weight, just a guess.
