Good First Week - Now's the Hard Part!!

What's more important - eating less or working out more?
What's more important - keeping total food consumption at the calorie goal or working out more (and eating more) to obtain a net calorie goal? I find that if I stick with consuming the number of calories I am allotted (1350), I tend to feel deprived. I feel much happier and satiated if I work out and then eat back some of…

1. During the MFP joining process, make reading http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/1080242-a-guide-to-get-you-started-on-your-path-to-sexypants, MANDATORY. 2. If a member tries to post a thread with "1200 calories" somewhere in the title the OP should immediately be redirected to the Sexy Pants post. # 2 becomes moot…
