It's crazy how accurate CICO is!
I've been 150 lbs for almost a week now which, for anyone who knows me knows I lose or gain .5 - 2 lbs daily.
Okay, okay... so maybe that's not so unusual. I mean, hey - I eat the same thing everyday 90% of the time. So what's the big deal?
I switched my routine a bit recently: instead of eating the same amount of calories regardless how much I burn (which - effectively - caused a constant up/down with a net result of balance), I've started eating to match my predicted burn.
I've been thinking about what I'd be doing on a day, plugging the numbers into Fat Secret, and eating within +/- 100 calories of that number.
The result? No weight change. I'm 150 lbs regardless the fact that my caloric range this week has been from 2000 - 2800 calories! THAT'S AN 800 CALORIE DIFFERENCE!! There's folks on here who swear they'll gain 5 lbs just adding 100 calories on a given day 🤔.
This week is vacation for me, so I'll be relaxing, getting caught up on projects, and doing a lot of reading. However, I've developed a special workout that will give me well over an hour a day at the gym. My burn will be higher than when I work, so I'll be eating closer to 3000 calories all week.
My prediction is I won't gain much (if anything), but we shall see...
If anyone read this far, congratulations! We BOTH have no life! 😜

Your journal was way too short if it was a test for no life. But I've been thinking the same way on calorie intake per day, that it should go up and down based on my activity for the day, instead of a set schedule. Glad to have a little confirmation. :)

A 70 calorie cookie will add 5 pounds of fat and 1 pound even if you look at it, man. It's science. Grats on the maintenance! :P

I think I need to sit still and read a book like you because I had 3200 calories yesterday yet my workout sucked because my deficit was too large. Literally cut my endurance in half. 255x10 on bench turned into 255x4 yesterday. :(

I definitely adjust my WOE depending on activity. The days I swim, have errands to do, go hiking— clean house are the days I make sure I hit my RDI or at least close. If I am going to be in school all day or have no exercise for whatever reason, those are the days I try to be a little more careful with my meal planning. My goal is to maintain my weight not gain much but Definitly do not want to loose any either.

CICO always works and is independent of the particular diet plan. They all come back to CICO at some point.

Last month I lost 2.2 lbs one week, then cut 100 Cal/day during the next one and lost 2.4. So one fifth of 3500 calories caused exactly a fifth of a pound difference. (I'd averaged a few days of weigh-ins so I know it was legit.) All models are wrong, but some are useful.

Hey we have lives! Lol FS is just a big part of it and that’s great because it means we are trying to get/stay healthy ;).
Good job holding steady!! I’m one that if I add in a bit I’ll gain a pound or so but it always comes off in a couple days. It’s not like 100 kcal can make you gain even one pound of true weight or fat. Maybe if that 100 was jerky then you could gain 1# in water. Sodium seems to be a big factor in my weight temporarily going up and I always forget to check that.
