I have been stressing & searching the internet almost daily lately concerning how many calories to eat, the battle about eating below/above bmr & everything else.....I'm so glad I came across the Olivia method. It makes so much more sense to me, very logical, and have set my profile to this method as of today! 
Thanks for putting this info on here.

Yes, I really like it too! It is the way you look at things that make such a big difference. When I knew I had X amount of calories to eat I would eat them whether I was hungry or not. Now that my goal is having the deficit be 500-1000 and just making sure I eat my BMR, I focus more on having a nice deficit. Not sure if this makes sense but this really helps me from just eating for the sake of eating!0

I love it too!!! I have been more successful at my losing with it too! I think it is the fact that u don't have to see a red (negative) number if you go over ur goal for the day. It's a mind trick! Yay Olivia!! I have been explaining this method to so many people!!! Love it!!! 0

me too... I have been stacked to the last pounds and couldn't move the scale down. I work out 4 times per week (I'm trying to be a long distance runner) and do some weight lifting 2 times per week. Also I have Hashimoto but my hypothyroid is under control with meds.
I began this method about 10 days ago. I was also sick so couldnt exercise, and kept an average deficit about 300 cals daily.... and today... MAGIC...
-2 POUNDS!!!!!
I couldn;t believe it.
It is really helpful to know that I can still eat and lose. Even when someone is so close to the goals he/she set.
Thanks....0
