Why do you believe that makes a significant difference? And if so how big difference does it make? Can I eat 2000 kcal with one diet and gain weight and 3000 k

Why do you believe that makes a significant difference? And if so how big difference does it make?
Can I eat 2000 kcal with one diet and gain weight and 3000 kcal with another weight and lose weight?
- tchaffee 7y agoThe point you are missing is that with one diet you would out of control crave far more calories. While on a different diet you would have to force yourself to eat beyond feeling satisfied to reach the same number of calories.
- cc81 7y agoI'm not missing that, it was just not something that was discussed. I was talking about weight gain and weight loss, not how easy or difficult it is in practice. What you eat will of course matter when it comes to nutrition, muscle gain, satiety and many other factors but that in itself does not generally remove that a calorie is a calorie (unless extreme diets).
- tchaffee 7y agoYou asked why it makes a significant difference. And it looks like you answered your own question. A calorie being a calorie is one of the less interesting factors when it comes to actual practice. And yet it gets repeated ad nauseum every time the discussion comes up.
