Do I need to eat the calories burnt during exercise??

tashalizzie

I've logged my food and added my spinning class and my the calorie intake I have been given for the day has increased? Do I need to eat the calories burnt during exercise?

I've generally thought not as it will create a slightly bigger deficit so will mean my weight loss is a little quicker. Can anyone advise?
Many thanks. x

MFP has alreday calculated the deficit you need, based on food alone, so you can eat back those earned exercise calories and still lose weight.

Yep, eat them back. NET at least 1200 calories each day.
