I'd bet the biggest factor is that they're more active, walking to train stations, seeing sights.

Not so much. It's portion size. Walking a mile might burn a hundred calories. Ordering Breakfast in America you're going to get a thousand to 1500.

Well their idea of breakfast is deli meats. So yeah skipping meals tends to cut some calories.

Huh?

Where are you eating deli meat for breakfast in the USA?

I think they are referring to Europe not the US. In Germany it's not uncommon for breakfast to consist of meat and cheeses on different kinds of rolls. Edit: rereading, it's clear they're referring to the US.

It's even more than that. I have two meals today and still constantly feel full.
