It also doesn’t account for the complex interaction of hormones in each individual body. Posters who keep chiming in with this ridiculous outdated (endocrinologists and other specialists acknowledge this is extremely antiquated thinking btw) information need to get new information. I think I am vowing today to stop clicking on any diet related posts because it’s like offering phrenology as the explanation to ADHD.

So what is your guidance?
I’m sure whatever it is costs a lot more money than CICO.

Your welcome! For an educated crowd, your dietary knowledge is embarrassingly antiquated.
I think people have a real emotional investment in the thing they learned 20-30 years ago, and if it’s a thing that has worked for them, they’ll make the assumption that it works for everyone.
I like how they jump immediately to a 1000 calorie diet for what someone allegedly couldn’t be obese on. Not many adults follow a 1000 calorie diet, so it’s not really a realistic example.

It’s completely realistic that you can have two people, same height and build, same activity level, and one of them uses 2000 calories a day to be at stasis, and one uses 1700. Hormones can definitely play a part in how your body uses and processes energy.
I’ve had sustained success with CICO, and I have PCOS and hypothyroidism. At this point, it’s a lifestyle, I’m in maintenance. I do have to be careful though, I know I can get a little fixated on the numbers, I’m hoping to get to a place where I can maintain without so much math.
There are a lot of people who overestimate how active they are, and undercount how much they're eating/drinking.

Agree.
No one is going to become obese eating 1000 calories per day. Regardless of it it is 1000 calories worth of steak, avocados, or oreos.

I am a very healthy eater and I do find using the calories in/calories out mindset to be helpful. I had been overeating a bit and gained 10 pounds during covid and learning about my bmr, etc. and tracking my calories (of my usual nutritious food) has helped me easily lose it.
