Hi All,
I am struggling meeting my Net Calories Goal. If I don't meet it meaning I am coming under the recommended amount does that mean I will loose less weight? I generally do my workouts in the evening so and can burn 400-600 cals depending on what type of workout I do. And to get in an additional 300-400 cals that late is very difficult to me. As I try very had to stick to the 1200 cals during the day. Can someone break down this Net Calories Concept in Laymens terms for me?

Eat more during the day before your workout.
