Raising my calories has helped me, but that's because my calories were extremely low before, which I try to make clear to people who ask. Yes, I increased my calories from what they were, but I'm still probably eating the same amount as people who LOWERED their intake.
But I really do think some people who come here and have problems aren't eating enough. When I see a post from someone who's 300 pounds and eating maybe 1,000 calories a day, that's just not enough. And if they're not losing or they're feeling fatigued, I do tell them what worked for me and suggest they try increasing their calories "a bit." But do I say go eat 3,000 calories a day? No.
