If your calorie intake is just 1500 today, it is bad advice. If your calorie surplus is 1800, it is good advice.
But I wonder, were those few words the full response? Information hiding to prove a point is too easy.
- hansvm 2y agoA calorie surplus of 1800/day is ~190 lbs/yr. Is that something people actually do?
- tredre3 2y agoYes. You can't just say that someone eating 1800 over the recommended 2000 will perpetually gain weight. Weight maintenance calories will depend on the weight of the person. A 500lbs man will need to consume 4000kcals/day to not lose weight. Cutting 1800 of that is realistic and might be good advice on the LLM's part, so it really depends on how GP asked the question.
