No, you're missing the point. Point is that even 500kcal less than your claimed daily intake will put into a 100++kg body weight, even if you're an elite athlete.

Unless you eat like Askeladden, there is absolutely zero chance you were eating anywhere close to 6000kcal a day if you didn't have medical condition that tampered with your intake.

Don't spread misinformation, especially about a topic that is already so heavily mired with it.

    Except I was and I did. It's not misinformation. It's experience. But thanks for trying to invalidate 15 years of my life with zero information other than a basic understanding of calories and not figuring in any other metabolic factors.

    Maybe you did consistently eat 6000kcal and 70% of it went right through your system and into the toilet, but then you had a medical condition that you didn't treat. Maybe a small village of tapeworms in your stomach, but no healthy person eat nearly three times as much as a normal man and stay underweight.

    I spent three years going to doctors and at the end of the day it was suggested that I eat red meat salt on my food and drink alcohol to keep my blood pressure up because there was nothing they could do for my metabolism.

    So you don't know how to count calories. Just say that.

    Except I did. If I got behind I would lose pounds.
