Raising calories to 2,200..?

Question

if i were to raise my caloric intake to 2,200 calories, i know i will initially gain some weight but would my metabolism eventaully rise to meet this and stabilize or will i gain weight forever or just at first?

Answer 1

you will you loose weight

Answer 2

If you raise your caloric intake to 2,200 gradually and not suddenly then your body and metabolism will adjust rather than just going from what you normally take in to 2,200.

Answer 3

You will gain body fat until the extra weight causes you to burn 2200 calories every day. Body fat though, has only a small effect on how many calories you need (opposed to lean body mass), and therefore you may gain a noticeable amount until an equilibrium is reached.
