"I ate in a calorie deficit but didn't lose weight."
No, you did not.
Jeremy Ethier ran a small metabolism experiment using astronaut-grade accuracy.
What he found was that out of 9 people, not one had a fast or slow metabolism. Everyone burned almost exactly what their body weight predicted.
The most interesting part he found was that most people underestimated how much they ate by 500–1,000+ calories a day.
A skinny guy who couldn't gain weight guessed 2,000. He was actually eating 3,300. An overweight girl who wanted to lose weight guessed 1,800. She was at 3,000.
Not one had an abnormal metabolism. Every single one had a tracking problem.
Studies actually show people underestimate their daily calorie intake by 20–50%, with the gap widest among those who need accuracy most.
People are not broken, but their tracking is. Fix that and the math takes care of itself.

@dtronic234 @gLoverbuoygq @mikeddonatelli Unfortunately you’re blinded about how much fat vs muscle you actually have and think you’re an exception and it’s okay because most people think this way including me at one point. The reality is, you need to be close to 200 for your size to be leaner.
@1realFormula All vegetables can stay
-type of bun matters
-type of cheese matters
-most importantly, what % lean is the patty
A 96% lean burger with keto buns and velveta cheese is low calorie
@taste_of_tbone I believe former college guys could get hits if they saw 100 pitches but absolutely squaring one up for a home run is not happening when current players way better than them are barely doing it
Pittsburgh broke the all-time round one attendance record with 320,000 fans tonight, topping the 275,000+ who attended in Detroit in 2024, per the NFL.
As a Philly native that’s in Pittsburgh a couple times a year, hear me out.
If you’re driving to the NFL draft, and you see this…you have about 3 seconds MAX to make the right decision or you’re COOKED.
FOH with the prospect talk like they didn’t just pay Kyle Tucker $60M a year to be their fifth‑best hitter. The Dodgers are the best team in baseball because their payroll sits in its own tax bracket, miles above almost every other franchise, full stop.
They have unlimited financial resources, so they’re not forced for trade prospects as much as other teams. When they do move someone good, it doesn’t matter. They can cover any mistake with another massive, deferred contract without blinking.
The only meaningful difference between them and other well‑run teams is the budget. They’re the Rays with a stack of blank checks. They’ve drafted and developed very few true stars in the last decade; they bought the rest.
Any conversation that ignores their spending is disingenuous at best. Stop acting like they’re some feel‑good story built on plucky underdogs and homegrown talent.
@Dr_DurazMft @Hybridathlete Depends on your goals but if it’s for fat loss mainly and you got the time, I’d walk because running may spike hunger hormones
