your net needs to be at least 1200 calories, so you need to EAT!0

Generally speaking, net calories should be at least 1200. But everyone is different. If I get fewer than 1400 net calories I stop burning fat. Others can tolerate a lower amount of calories.0

Before I got an heart rate monitor, I guessed at the calories and was way under. So I started to eat more, and actually have been losing at a better rate.0
