How accurate is the MFP calories burned from exercise?
Hi there, MFP has been saying I've been burning around 800 calories a day doing exercise, which then gives me 800 extra food calories.

Keep it movin, movin. Keep it movin'
How many calories do you aim to burn in a day with exercise? Do you go by your MFP goals? Personal goals? Or whatever you have the energy to do? Do you ever have to stop yourself from exercising even though you have the energy so you won't burn too many in one day?

Buying Insanity for $85--too much?
I found a seller on craigslist that will sell it new, still in packaging, for $85. All the DVDs and diet guide, everything. It's usually like $110 I think. I'd be willing to buy it used obviously, and even without the diet guide probably since I'm vegetarian/sort of vegan now and it probably won't help me too much in that…
