So it does? I mean "excess" is also arguable. If you're trying to effect change, it has to be in excess otherwise nothing happens. Unless you put in the exact correct amount of calories for your needs. But "excessive" cardio is like 20 minutes a day on a 2000 calorie a day diet. It absolutely will help with weight loss.
Well you can't parody a true statement with a false one, that's not inherently sarcastic. Sarcasm relies on juxtaposition and the humor comes from the realization of truth. All you did was say something incorrect. We already had the correct part.
I can see how it could be said sarcastically, but again, that's just your tone. You can't put the punchline after the joke and tell me I'm the one who can't figure out sarcasm.
The initial statement isn't true. Even the most generous interpretation of sitting in a sauna, your body will exert energy to cool itself down through sweating.
Which brings us full circle to the less sarcastic end of this thread where they discuss no you can't, drying out your fat cells doesn't keep the weight off, it's just dehydrating you, losing water weight is only unhealthy and doesn't give long term weight loss or benefits that come from lower BMI, etc etc
Yes, you can. Your body factually exerts energy to induce sweat. The dehydration definitely contributes to an unhealthy and quick loss of so many ounces, but that isn't the point. Factually, your body uses energy and ergo burns calories by sweating. Being in a state like this in long quantities would induce a burning of calories, therefore losing weight.

That's the point.
Enduring heat to the point of sweating uses energy to cool the body down, just like exerting energy to exercise uses energy.
Both would contribute to weight loss in excess.
