If you are dieting , exercising and still gaining weight, you have to check your thyroid function test.-1

There's just so much misinformation in this thread that it's ridiculous. Op, it's going to come down to calories in verse calories out, barring any medical condition. There is no reason to cut carbs, sugar, or anything else unless you have a medical condition that warrants it. Most people in this situation realize they are really consuming more then they think, are burning less then they think or aren't weighing/measuring properly. Tweak your measuring and weighing and see how it goes.0

Chronic insomnia, exercise overload, thyroid... There are other reasons for gaining weight even at a deficit.-1

Aren't you the same one who claimed you became dehydrated by drinking more than 8-10 cups of water a day?

I am one of those most honest people on Earth. I don't need to post pics to prove it. What you see is what you get. Go find your hole and sit in it.
@tedboosalis7 You do realize that the only person who should feel humiliated is you, right? You continue to humiliate yourself by claiming you lost weight while you were not in a calorie deficit.
Oh of course! I am the one who lost 50 pounds and is down to just below 170#, gained muscle, and lost PBF to normal levels.
DUH!!!! WTF!-1 -
First of all, ain't no one around here gettin' paid. Even me.
Second of all:
1. No Attacks or Insults and No Reciprocation
a) Do not attack, mock, or otherwise insult others. You can respectfully disagree with the message or topic, but you cannot attack the messenger. This includes attacks against the user’s spelling or command of written English, or belittling a user for posting a duplicate topic.
b) If you are attacked by another user, and you reciprocate, you will also be subject to the same consequences. Defending yourself or a friend is not an excuse! Do not take matters into your own hands – instead, use the Report Post link to report an attack and we will be happy to handle the situation for you.
Third, there is no spam or abuse in this thread, so if you're doing this, please stop:

If you are counting calories daily, and still not losing weight, then cut your calories by another 100 and wait a month. If nothing, then cut by another 100 and wait another month. If nothing, then cut by another 100 and wait another month.
Do this until you are losing at least 1 pound every 2-3 weeks.
Once you are at your goal weight, add 100 calories and wait a month. If you're still losing weight, add another 100 calories and wait a month. If you're still losing weight, add another 100 calories and wait a month.
See a pattern developing?
Lifelong success is a function of lifelong dedication. It gets easier, but it's never going to be autopilot.0 -

You are down 50 lbs because you were in a calorie deficit.

"When it comes to weight loss, calories are king. It doesn’t matter if you’re following a low-fat, low-carbohydrate or glycemic index diet, if you eat too many calories, you won’t lose weight. Successful weight loss depends on creating a calorie deficit, which occurs when you expend more calories than you consume."0 -

Pro tip: spend less time googling.
If you read the part below it says quite categorically, Read the material referenced in these books. Have you? Have you really gone through it all? There's a lot of extremely well educated and highly qualified people who's work is referenced in just those few books
Read #5-8
And for every report there is another that contradicts it but I'm seeing more and more people with weight problems and trying something different and finding it actually works for once is amazing. Especially as I'm on levothyroxine at 125mg a day and do you know how many websites there are that written by doctors and Ph.D graduates saying how hard it is to lose weight without a functioning thyroid? Even the NHS dietitian told me it would be hard work and that I would be lucky to get my weight under control. For three years Iv'e tried everything out there with no luck. Then I tried, against my Drs advice, a no sugar no grains approach. It has worked wonders. My blood tests are coming back better than ever. They don't lie. My Dr has changed her view and decided to read up and from what I have gathered is now much more sympathetic to this way of eating. You might not agree, but judging by the 6% body fat profile photo, you don't have to worry. You've nailed it already. That photo you have on your profile was me 10 years ago. Before I got fat and sick and I could eat anything I liked.-2 -

Nope. I ate the right foods and made sure I was full and exercised. There was no deficit and no deprivation. Incorrect. Move along, nothing to see here.-2 -

No they aren't. Except for maybe some temporary stall or water weight gain.
Thyroid problems might effect the CO variable in the CICO equation, but then you might not be in a deficit... which would make your statement still untrue.

Do me a favor… Go to your PCP (or any physician for that matter) and tell them you lost 50 lbs without a calorie deficit. They'll laugh you right out of their office. And might even send you for a psych eval.0 -

Well, now, wait... we're either not losing weight because everything we eat turns to fat or we're wasting away. Pick one.

Yeah, we are literally skin and bones in our profile pictures, right? Unlike yours, they actually show our body.0 -

Hey, no one deplores your methods for YOU. It's the "one true way" bit that's the whole issue.
Got that yet?
I asked a question a while back about how if it seems to be the only way how anyone else ever loses weight using another way. You never answered.
