I dunno about that. I've monitored calorie intake while keeping to an under-40g allotment of carbs per day. I was still eating north of 2500 calories a day (which was less, but not that much less, than before--about a 300 calorie deficit per day), working an office job, and exercising less than I should. One day a week was a cheat day, where I not only permitted myself but frankly demanded that I put all sorts of high-calorie horrible things into my face. I'd regularly end up around 4000-5000 calories every Saturday (until I stopped liking those things--also an interesting side effect). I lost fifty freaking pounds. Off Chipotle salad bowls and shawarma salads (and I was already eating those things, just...now sans rice). Ketosis does some weird stuff.
