Do you count calories?
How thoroughly?
Does it seem to correlate well with weight loss / gain?
I've heard from one or two people that this might actually be how to lose weight.
You bet I do. I count all calories I consume and log them too.
Surprisingly, calorie counting does confirm whether I'm eating too little (lose weight), eating too much (gain weight) or eating just the right amount (maintain weight).
Those people you heard from on this....are spot on.0 -

That is so neat that you have chosen to not literally count anymore. I am hoping one day to intuitively know what a serving looks like. I am not there yet, though.0 -
I've lost about 50lbs since starting to track calories on this site. I did lose about 40lbs before that by eating smaller portions (sadly, to pay back student loans while working as a post doc; I wasn't even trying to lose weight).0

I've lost 65 pounds counting calories in all sorts of delicious food and eating within my calorie limits.0

It's working like a charm.

I started out counting, lost 20 pounds, hung out a maintenance for a while, then lost fifteen more. Now been at maintenance for two years. Counted the entire time. I will always weigh, count, and log. It takes very little time and I'll always be sure of maintaining without worrying.0

I only count "clean" calories.0
