I'm confused. I've always heard that one of the big reasons people don't lose weight is that they think that they can eat more calories because they exercised. But I keep reading on here that you have to eat your exercise calories in order to succeed. Which is right?

I love espresso, just black, I like to drink between 2-10 shots a day, the caloric value is very low at 5 cals a shot and 75mg of caffeine each, I'm just wondering if anyone has an educated response to how this might effect weight loss. Anyways, I figure its better to indulge in coffee than greasy pizza, beer, or ice…
