Obese people have a lot more to lose vs. someone already in great shape.. In my case, if I want to lose 20 lbs of fat and I'm only at 18%, I'm looking for about a pound a week to preserve muscle/strength. I also don't want to do any running, ect in favor of power walking or 10 minutes of HIIT on the bike or something. Obese people, in my opinion, if they have an atmosphere such as on that show, "the biggest loser", they lose A LOT of weight, FAST!

So an obese person who wants to remake their body can pretty much do the same thing as an in shape, muscular, low bf person who wants to cut, exept that the obese guy will lose fat faster than the cutter?

I don't think they possibly could do anything other than change their diet and move around throughout the day.. Most cannot walk. But going from 10,000 cals a day to 6,000 and moving around vs. sitting on the couch all day will lead to dramatic results whereas an athlete looking to lose weight will have a tougher time.
