Does your metabolism adjust to meet your caloric intake?

Question

for instance if someone begins to eat 2,000 calories a day, will their metabolism rise to meet this? if so, how long with this take?

i know you would initially gain weight, but would it stabilize?

Answer 1

Yes it does adjust. That adjustment varies in time depending on you're body type and activity level. I eat a small meal every three hours so my metabolism is always fired up..(because I give it something to do constantly) Eat as much clean food as you want as long as your activity level is there to match it.
