the post itself talks about change in caloric intake and potential decrease in metabolism.
a decrease in necessary calories doesn’t change the math, just one of the variables.
seems like it still works to simplify to calories in and calories out, just don’t assume the numbers you’re handed are right. you can always measure your changes.
are there more layers to this? of course.
- SamoyedFurFluff 3y agoWait, if you can’t assume numbers you’re handed are right, how are you measuring changes? At some point fundamentally CICO requires some amount of counting calories??
- catchnear4321 3y agoare you suggesting calories can’t be measured?
