hi everyone, im new around here and my first time ever doing this...
my question, is this site has given me 1200 calories for the day.i
i work out as well, but im confused on the burning of the cal, from when i work out. i need to consume more cal right?
im finding at the end of the day i have about 100-200 left over, shouldn't i be trying to get this down some?
im also finding im getting fuller alot faster?
can you all help out?

    I just ignore that "if" button , I really don't think it's too accurate.
