It's important to notice that while an underlying medical issue is certainly likely in your situation, and that's hard to work against... There's no physical way you were actually ingesting 200 daily calories and didn't lose weight.

This is beyond biology, it's physical. You were either consuming way more than that, or you were actually losing weight and just didn't notice. There's no alternative.

I mean they said every other day, if one day they get 200 and the next they get 5000 they ain't losing weight...

Are they doing that or is this just a "stupid idiot is clearly just cheating" blanket retort?

Had a friend who was overweight and got into long distance running. He went from 300 lbs to a lean, mean 140. Then he injured his knee and had to give up his sport. Simple diet didn't work, he steadily put on 100 lbs over the next two years.

Another girl I know cleans straight through 3000+ calories a day easy. Never went above 120. In fact, if she's not housing down food she gets weak and anemic.

That's got nothing to do with intake and everything to do with metabolism

I'm not an expert but I believe that everyone needs different intakes, depending on metabolism and activity, but if you go lower you lose weight. I went through a diet where the only thing I did was count the calories, and it worked really well.
