This x10. I lost 43 lbs in 6 months upping my calorie intake by 500-1000 calories a day. But I drastically changed what types of calories I ate. I also halved my triglycerides, and brought my HDL and LDL levels far into the healthy ranges.

All by cutting out grains and sugar and replacing them with lots and lots of vegetables and meat (I'm lying, it was mostly bacon).

To a person who vehemently believes in the thermodynamic weight loss hypothesis (calories in minus calories out!), it would be more convenient if your anecdote, and others like it, did not exist.
