Help...
Ok so if I am using 1200 per day
and I work out a couple of times a day (which I am doing) which burns off lots of calories
and this add more calories for me to use thru out the day
Do I have to use up all those calories? Sometimes by the time I go to bed I still have a few hundred calories (sometime more sometime less) but never use all of them.
I know your body has to have "so many" calories a day or it will store fat and not let you loose thinking it is starving.
By not eating all those extra calories am I doing bad or good. I just want to make sure i am loosing and not storing...!

No, you don't have to eat up all of your work-out calories. I try to use very little of them, if any, but I'm not going to starve myself so that I don't use them.0
