If your body TDEE drops by 300~500cal once your lose weight, you will have to recalculate your new TDEE and get back into caloric deficit.
TDEE ussualy reduce cause your body is lighter, moving around use less cals.
Not always because "metabolism slows cause starving"
Calorie deficit always works. Its physics.Biggest losers gain back weight cause they go into big surplus due to eat alot food after the show.
That's why you shud be in 300~500 deficit not crash diet 1500 deficit.
It's ussualy wise to eat at TDEE after a deficit for few months to give yourself a break before resuming deficit later on.
Stop reading any news website to get your info. They ussualy suck and full of misinformation.
Follow sources like Mike Israetel from Renaissance Periodization
You obviously didn't digest the part where it states your body will lower its metabolic rate and change its set point when you calorie restrict. Please read the article properly, the Biggest Losers gain back weight NOT because they ate a surplus, but it's because their metabolic rate dropped. One even gained weight just by drinking water.
Look, a calorie is not a calorie, not all calories are the same. People keep thinking "it's physics, it's physics" when they don't understand the basic physics, which is
YOUR BODY DOES NOT RUN ON HEAT. When I see people say that, I know they don't know what a calorie is.
