Actual Honest Results from Eating More?

I am seeing a lot of people posting about making progress by eating MORE, whether eating their BMR or their TDEE - 15 or 20%. Apparently this is good for breaking a plateau, but I am curious about short and long term results. For those of you that did this, did you lose weight immediately, and consistently lose weight for as long as you followed this guideline? Did you lose weight after a few weeks, and then drop several pounds and proceed to plateau again? Did you need to reduce calories again at some point? Did you do this from the beginning of your weight loss or only after severe calorie restriction?
Please post your results and how long it took you to drop that much weight while following this method, and how many calories you consumed, and your SW, and CW.
(Please do not post calorie restriction results!! Only Results from INCREASED calories)
