should I eat the calories I burn?
I workout quite a bit and find that when I add my exercise to my dialy log it adds on extra calories to consume for the day. Is it necessary to eat these calories in order to lose weight? Or will I lose weight quicker by eating only my 1200 calories allotted daily without the exercise?

Calories Burned By Shoveling
I just shoveled about a foot of snow for an hour. I know that it has to count towards my exercise for the day but am unsure of how to classify it. Any suggestions or knowledge of the calories burned per minute? Or would this be considered "strength training" in lieu of cardio?
