why is myfitnesspal telling me I will gain weight when I keep losing

unknown

whenever I enter my eating diary I am advised by the website I will gain weight. In fact I have continued to lose, over 12 kg (26lb??) in past 2+ years?? My exercise has fluctuated through this time and has no effect on rates of loss. I just spent 1 month on bed rest after joint replacements and I continued to lose body fat. I think I know the answer. I have completely cut out carbs (<50g/day max). I eat as much of everything else as I want, particularly going for high fat foods eg full cream lattes, fatty meat, lots of cheese and nuts, eggs++. I never count calories -starving yourself to lose weight is unsustainable. Myfitnesspal unfortunately is stuck on calorie counting as an indicator of dietary needs so keeps telling me I will gain weight. I do love its food data base for calculating my macronutrient intake. My message - if in doubt eat less carbs and more fat!! Switch off your insulin to reduce your hunger and to stop storing fat.

"I never count calories"

Hence you're not logging accurately

Hence the mathematical formula spits out a response based on what you enter

For me, and for millions like me, low carb is not the answer because the rebound and eventual weight gain absolutely sucks

Well, so far, 27.4kg down. I do very low carb. I upped my carbs once and only gained 800 grams back. Not really much of a disaster. I eat more now than I did before low carb and still lose the same (MFP says I'll only lose 500g a week and I usually manage 1500g or so). I don't see a rebound. Why should there be? Do you say the same thing to every person who is cutting down kcal to lose weight? It's a change, and there could be a rebound, no?
