Hi Everyone, I am a fitness instructor and teach classes throughout the week so yes I am very active. I was wondering if anyone eats their exercise calories? I usually dont and sometimes I do.

I am new to IF as well just started November 2nd and already lost 17lbs.

    I don't, but I'm not nearly as active as you. If you are hungry or feel weak you might want to consider upping your calories a moderate amount and see how it goes.

    I do IF and carb cycling at the same time. So on my workout days, I eat back all exercise calories to up my carb %. On my off days, it's low carbs and staying above the 50% daily deficit to keep my metabolism, leptins and glycogen in check. Started Dec. 4th and dropped 16 lbs.
