| > Maybe try to figure out why you’re feeling hungry. Is it because you’re running a 1000 kcal deficit? I know several people who are feeling hungry because they're not dead, regardless of how much calorie surplus or deficit they have. We can do the same activities and eat the same meals and I'll be satied and they will be hungry. Or I can confuse the hell out of them when we do some big activity and I say "i'm not hungry, we worked too hard"... or when we miss a meal by several hours and I tell them "I'm not hungry anymore, it's been too long... but I should probably eat something" > I think there isn't as much variance as people like to believe, Oh sure, I don't think everyone is really a unique snowflake, there are patterns. You can find lots of people in these threads who have a broken hunger sensor. You can find lots of people in these threads that can manage this intellectually. I don't see a lot of people in these threads like me who keep a healthy(ish) weight because IBS punishes them for bad food choices, but I'm sure they're out there. Plenty of people out there where celiac drives their relationship between calories in and calories out. Diet research would be a lot more interesting if there were ways to classify people by their 'metabolism type' and then see what can work for which type. Maybe there would be more reproducability that way, too. |
Are you saying 1000kcal vs 200kcal deficit makes no difference?

You can easily track your maintenance calories, by tracking your weight vs intake overtime.
