Hello peeps. Do you guys use the calories burned while walking throughout the day as a a excersice? Like for example my calorie intake goal is 2200 n i go over by 200 but burn 300...do you subtract the walking calories?

    If your calorie goal is coming from MFP, the intent isn't for you to subtract the calories burned through exercise but to add them to your daily calorie goal. So if your goal is to eat 1,500 and you burn 300, your new goal is 1,800.

    The trick is to make sure that your calorie burn estimates are accurate.
