She's 650 lbs. She would definitely lose weight on 4000 or less.

You must be a much more active sedentary than I am. The TDEE calculators always put me at 1400, maybe 1500 at most. I sleep 8 hours, sit 14, walk 2, do no moderate/intense activity.

1200 is the magic number for any grown adult. Our organs need 1200 to get the fuel they need to function properly.

Because it's yummy. That being said, I also think brownies, cupcakes, donuts, & reese's cups are yummy.

She's eating 820 calories total (1450 - 630 = 820) and says most days this is the norm. How is that "who you are"??? 800 calories is a starvation intake. Our organs need fuel (as in energy...as in calories) to function, that includes your heart, liver, and brain, and you REALLY don't want to starve your organs. Your organs…

Gaining 2kg increasing from 1250 to 1500 is not possible. That's water weight. If you really did maintain on exactly 1250 and you increased to exactly 1500 then you COULD gain 2kg but it would take you a little over two months. If you are gaining that amount in any time less than that, then it's water weight, period.

Starting weight and activity levels play a big role. A sedentary 5 foot tall woman can't eat as much as an active 5 foot tall woman and expect the same result. Plus whether you are starting at 200, 150, or 130 (for example) makes a big difference too.

I'm 4'11" and maintain 95 lbs on 1400 and all I do all day is sit on my butt. Sometimes I feel extra hungry & I'll eat 1600 - 2200 (averaging 1900) everyday for an entire month and I will gain 1 lb per week consistently until the end of the month where I'll be up 4 lbs. If I do it for another month, I'll be up another 4. I…

This happens to me. When you eat, blood goes to your stomach to help your food digest. This means less blood going to your heart/brain, so your heart will beat faster. Do you find your heart increasing 30 bpm or going to 120+ when you stand up? This are all common signs of a syndrome called POTS - Postural Orthostatic…

Yes, it is normal. It will be like this for A WHILE, so the best thing to do is try not to let it freak you out and just go with it. I realize that's easier said than done though. I am recovered from an ED and during recovery I "binged" on 6000 - 8000 calories a day, mostly consisting of poptarts and chocolate. I went from…
