I have a question about "extra calories from exercise". What do I do with them? Do I eat them? Do I eat some of them? Do I collect them until I have enough for a giant stuffed unicorn?
I set my calories and try to stick to it. I either succeed or fail (spectacularly). Are those "extra calories from exercise" just sitting there, scowling at me?2 -
I’ve been told to eat some of them back.0

@shewhoismany, people vary on this. I never eat them all, because I don't know how accurate they are, but I do slide into some of them sometimes. You may want to try it a week or two and see what results you get. Silly girl, giant stuffed unicorns don't have calories!!
@shalvy2007, good loss!
@suzanneelizabeth16, yea, a lower decade for you!
@tuddy315, if you have to see a gain, that's not a bad one! 1 -

Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? YES.
Something Positive about myself: I push myself to get my morning walks in, as often as possible, but sometime work gets in the way. I am working on not feeling guilty about that. Hard to fit everything in.5 -

Something Positive about myself: The extra walking is starting to pay off, seeing some muscle definition in my legs... now I need to start lifting weights or something to firm up the "Granny" arms.
Does anyone have any suggestions for firming up flabby arms?0 -

Hi Looneycatblue,
I was running late for work, then my hungar just subsided. So, I did not eat anything. Thank you for caring about me!1 -
Just assigned to team today so I've missed the last few days of intros and postings.
This looks like a fun group and hoping your enthusiasm will help motivate me to get onboard and stay onboard. Down about 15 lbs. from the first of the year but find myself lacking motivation these days and can feel the lbs. creeping back on and still have quite a ways to go.
So for yesterday...
Exercise? No
Track everything? Yes
Stay in calorie budget? Yes
Something positive about myself -- took the leap and joined MFP and this group.
