Things like hormones, drugs, metabolism etc do matter
Yes, but they all matter on the expenditure side of the issue. No one is saying that exercise is the only consideration on the expenditure side of the equation. It is however, the portion you have the most control over. If you have a low metabolism and thus a low resting expenditure of calories then you will need to make up the difference by either eating less or moving more. If you use drugs that elevate our resting metabolic expenditure the you will not have to eat as few calories or exercise as much.
It is still:
calories in > calories expended = weight gain
calories in = calories expended = weight neutral
calories in < calories expended = weight loss

No doubt, I was just saying there ARE other factors that go into a persons weight.
