Re: Can a man gain weight on 2500 calories?
People differ greatly in the efficiency with which they convert
calories to fat. Officially I'm supposed to need 3000+ calories/day
(I'm 6'4"). In fact, I gain weight if I eat more than 1500 or so.
I have a neighbour who has to stay below 1000 to avoid getting
fat (And by fat, I mean that she was well over 300 lb until she
got a sensible doctor who told her she could either voluntarily
stop eating so much, or he could arrange for an operation to cut
out 80% of her stomach so she wouldn't want/be able to eat so much.
She refused the operation, and is doing the best she can to stop
eating. It's tough!)
