To Eat Exercise Calories or Not....
Hi, I am somewhat new here and was curious what most people do regarding exercise calories. I workout 5-6 days a week and burn about 500-600 cals per time. My thought is that I should "eat" some of the calories that the "myfitnesspal" adds on to my daily total, but that I should not eat all of them. On the days I don't…

does it matter when i eat my calories?
If i just have a shake in the morning before my work out and a light lunch and eat most of my calories at dinner is that fine? I dont really have the lifestyle that allows me to have a bunch of lil snacks/meals throughout the day. Today for example mfp says i have 1600 calories left for the day because of my exercise and i…

I took all sorts of advice over the past 3 months here and altogether, I have GAINED 8 pounds! :( I was doing 1200 calories/day with exercise and didn't lose anything in an entire month(although I did maintain my weight).

So, I'm starting WW today...
I've decided I need a little flame lit under my butt for motivation. So I'm joining WW today for 12 weeks to see where it takes me. A friend of mine is doing it with me as well (she is already a member) so I think that will help. Hoping to learn a lot and see some change soon. Wish me luck!

OOOPS!
Last night was my bowling banquet. A true recipe for disaster.:laugh: I did manage to only have 3 NA beers, but "grazed" on some chips and dip and a small slice of pizza. I had about 500 calories left when I got there, but am sure I went over on calories, fat and sodium. The scale reflects this, with a 2 pound weight gain…

Excercise on a budget
Okay, my main excercises are walking, and this Tae Bo video (Which doesn't really do much for me because I have NO balance). I don't have a treadmill or any other type of excercise equipment, nor does my house have stairs. There are a lot of days where I can't get out to walk because of rain, or Tornado Watches, stuff like…
