Hi,

Im just about to start and Im wondering if I should take small 100cal steps towards my TDEE or go straight to it?
Ive been eating 1500cal and weight is staying the same, my TDEE is 2150.

    That would take you 7 weeks. Try 250 per week or go straight to TDEE. Some experience more of an immediate weight gain jumping straight to TDEE. I guess it also depends how long you have been at 1500. What is your BMR?

    I jumped from 1600 to 2200 and I didn't experience any gain. But it's different for everyone. I decided to just jump straight to it.

    I jumped straight from 1400 to 1900 and lost the very first week. Reading around I seem to be a bit of an exception though.
