    I don't exercise just so I can eat more, but if I'm going to go bike or otherwise kill 1 or 2 thousand calories in a day working out, you can almost bet that the freedom of food choices that follows is something I enjoy. It's often pizza night, or maybe food truck and local brewery day.

    And I've found then when I have 3500 to 4000 calories to eat, I can do what I want and usually the issue is more of making sure my deficit isn't too large for the day.

    I exercise for the benefits of exercise of course! But that does not mean the idea of more cheese doesn't motivate me, because it sure as hell does. <3 And I don't think that's bad xD Motivation is motivation, and exercise is good, so I don't see a problem with wanting to exercise for a few more calories, but then again, I am in a deficit so the extra calories do help. :)
