Ok I'm having a panic! I know I'm going at this wrong ...
On nonwork out days I'm eating to my cut 1850 which is ok
On workout days I'm eating many of my exercise kcal so often my net kcal = 1850 /my cut too
This is wrong isn't it?
I should not eat my exercise kcal unless my net dips below my BMR which is 1350 right?
But I get sooo hungry.
I am totally happy with a slow loss as I only want to lose 7 lb.

Help!

    Hello,

    First, take a deep breath :)

    Second, if you have your TDEE cut target set, just eat that everyday regardless if you are working out. Now if you do an extra hard burn day, and your TDEE cut minus the workout dips below your BMR, then eat back those to NET at least your BMR.

    :)
