Apologies for the multi-post, but I decided to add some more to that post because it's very short and it turns out you can't edit after 15 minutes.
So, given that you're taking in only 1206-1306 calories, you MUST lose weight. You wrote earlier that you weight ~230lb, so you should need about 2k+ calories in order to maintain proper body function. 700-800 calorie deficit is very serious. You should be losing weight by the pounds, very quickly. Like, in a span of a month or two. That you're actually gaining enough weight to make your pants not fit means that you're not giving us all the information.
If you're gaining that much weight with 800 calorie deficit defies physiology. The only real explanation is that you're on a diet/binge situation. You typically stay on the 1200-1300 calories, thus putting your body into starvation mode and very low metabolism, and then you suddenly eat on the order of 2k+ calories in a single day. Your metabolism is too low to deal with all of those and your body simply makes them into fat.
So, you'd do well to actually eat more and make sure you stick to that amount.
Well said.
