[QUOTE="badcat, post: 1512562"] I think calories matter quite a lot at some points in weight loss / metabolic change and much less / not at all at others I heve struggled with weight all my life and calorie counting did ****** all to help - I have clear memories of doctors telling my mum when I was about 7 or 8 that she must be lying about what she said she was feeding me because their calorie controlled diet advice wasnt working - I knew she wasnt, she knew she wasnt but the doctors were either too thick or too arrogant or both In my early 20s I lost 6 stone in 5 1/2 months on a meal plan testing for and then avoiding food intolerances - although my calorie count significantly increased over the same time period. When I first went low carb I lost about another stone very easily, again with increased calories but since then I do not lose or will put a couple of pounds on if I dont pay some attention to calories, things like the diet doctor meal plans are no use to me as the calorie count is very high and I also feel quite ill on the amount of fat they include - ive tried their low carb and keto meal plans several times but end up heabier and feeling sick.
