I don't think he ever said you can get fat without a positive energy balance. I think he just said that there are a lot of things that regulate energy out and energy in (Energy in for those of us who don't have the willpower to eat 3kcals a day no matter what).
He talks a lot about stuff that is supposed to make the body expend less energy, etc.

Though I don't agree that you can't eat yourself fat on a protein and fat diet, of course you can, but it is damn hard because it's hard to eat a lot of those foods. I tried eating low carb at 4000-4500cals a day.. it was horrible!
