Is it ok to go a little over your calorie limit?
Today I went about 50 calories over. Is that alright? Or should I exercise some more to work it off? At what calorie limit should I start to exercise to take it off (over 100+) ?

But then who wants to workout on a full stomach? Someone told me…

I was put on…
